Rockfax Description
35m. A Scottish classic! The big groove, well-protected, on good holds all the way.

βeta: Spoke to the farmer en route to crag across his fields on 21/5/24. His fence had been broken a while back (at the point where you climb it to drop down to the steel bridge) and his sheep had escaped to the headland above the cliffs. He seemed ok about it but said there seems to be more climbers about (therefore more fence climbing) Care and respect when climbing the fence is needed! | βeta? | |

βeta: Separate ab rope would be preferred. Extended abseil, 50m ropes do reach. Much potential for them to fall in sea when you pull... dry treatment or good catching skills helpful | βeta? | |
