Crag features
This is a small outcrop on the Pannanich hill. It was originally called Craig Corn, which is actually a heathery coire a mile to the south.
The crag is split roughly into three sections with numerous boulders pottering the hillside. These are all now comprehensively written up in Royal Deeside Climbs 2025.
There is a fascinating rock by the Tetrahedra Boulder It is a roughly circular boulder, standing up, which has a fist-sized, round hole carved out of the middle. It must have been a real labour of love to carve the hole in such a remote place. It looks like somone might have started to make a mill stone but left it unfinished, high up the hill in this fairly inacessable place. I'd love to know the story of this forgotten stone, but it's probably lost in the mists of time. To make it more intriguing the hole can only be seen from above, a large boulder blocks the hole from veiwers below. Seek it out and marvel at the hard graft of the unknown stone carver.
Approach notes
Park your car on the South Deeside road at 416 967 at the entrance to a restored mill. Walk the track for about 500m then, just before a gateway through an old well-made dyke, take the right turn up a short forest track which leads you out through a deer fence to the hillside. The crag is directly opposite you on the top of the ridge. 25-30 minutes from the edge of the forest.
