Summary

One of the best venues in the central belt for those operating in the E3-5 range (plenty to go at above and below too).

Description

Even though the crag has since a bit of a renaissance in 2017 with a committed band of locals tidying things up, clearing back vegetation and giving some of the routes a much needed scrub, a lot more is there to do yet, with lines suffering from moss accumulation and bad conditions.

Very sheltered, left wall catches evening sun in summer. However, can seep quite a bit over the winter. Very close to the M9 so makes an ideal stopping off point if heading further north or south.

Approach

(56.107574, -3.976590)

Walk straight south and after passing a bunch of fallen trees you'll reach the crag in 3-4 mins.
