Approach notes

From the harbour a short walk due south will cross several old field boundaries before reaching a rounded spur running east down to Point an Ghoib. From this spur, which itself is defined by a field boundary, a route should be found on a descending traverse south west to the top of 'The Slab'.

The descent to the long ledge below 'The Slab' and 'Black Wall' follows a series of large easy steps on the north eastern edge of 'The Slab'. This ledge is just above the level of high water spring tides, but is not safe if heavy seas are running. In this case a higher traverse into the climbs can easily be made. To reach the base of climbs in 'Chimney Scoop' an easy descent can be made from the south western end of the cliff or by climbing 'Slí Amach' from below 'Black Wall'.
