Restricted Access

TO PRESERVE ACCESS follow the approach instructions above - DO NOT PARK IN ESTATE FIELD ENTRANCES/GATEWAYS

** There is a voluntary climbing ban during the shooting season 1st Oct - 1st Feb. While this is not legally enforceable under Scottish Land Rights Act (walking is still permitted along the paths), it is strongly encouraged to keep a good relationship with the estate, who are currently very accommodating of the bolting and climbing in the Heughs. **

15m. Climb through the overhang at a weakness and follow the groove more easily to the head wall. From the corner take a step left under the overhang, which is then surmounted to reach the top.

βeta: Best warm up route here (assuming this is actually the route I think it is... some confusion remains about that).
