Crag features

Warm winter crag with interesting if not slightly stiff technical climbing.

Access Banned

On the 12/09/2014 the crag was declared forbidden to climb on due to rockfall. The base of the crag is littered with lots of fallen rock.

A party climbed there unaware of the rockfall issues and saw 3 separate small stones fall from the top and a huge football-sized rock fall from above the crag about 80m straight to the ground followed by a scattering of smaller pebbles, possibly dislodged by 2 Ibex grazing above the crag. 

Other restrictions are not to climb there during May - June due to nesting peregrine falcons.

The ground below routes 1-6 is becoming very loose and unstable although you do have a cable to attach yourself when belaying and the wooden platform for routes 4-5 is also pretty rotten and not safe.

Best to avoid climbing here untill further notice.
