Restricted Access

20/03/2025 - The raven nest mentioned below is active once again. Avoid all climbs in the centre of the crag as to not disturb the nest.

A large, active raven nest is currently positioned right in the middle of the crag, effectively blocking access to the vast majority of the routes. Went up yesterday (28/04) with the intention of climbing, but couldn't see a way to climb any of the routes without disturbing/stressing the ravens.

Parking on the triangle of grass as suggested in the guidebook would seem to be not permitted. Parked there yesterday and having then walked all the way to the crag we were approached by the Dunira estate manager (who drove in a 4x4 up to the crag) and asked to move our cars. On explaining the information we had he said we needed to park on the main road car park and walk in from there. The manager was very pleasant and in no way confrontational. 

12m. From the flake at the left end of the crag make a tricky move to gain its top, then traverse out left along a handrail, stand up on the high ledge to gain the left to right break and then don't stop till the top. (Good although escapable!)
