Some fine routes a long way from the road. Great multi-pitch routes up to 740ft, including Main Wall (HS 4b), The Grooves (E1 5b), Lubyanka (E3 6a) and Long Kesh (E5 6b).
A fairly steady 45/50 minutes from the parking near Ynyws Etws. The path is clear and the routes can be worked out from the basin below before you get too close.
A very, very long walk in from anywhere. Not the place to have an epic, accident or to get benighted. Head torch essential since you probably will come home in darkness anyway.
As said already, the above access description is wrong. It's up at the top of the pass. You can see the car from the crag. Longsufferingropeholder - 09/Sep/12 |

Ignore the above description - its not a long walk in. steep maybe but not long. The Pylon King - 12/Jan/08 |

More N than E facing, hence it's in the shade most of the day. No pegs on belay at end of pitch 2 of Main Wall (as guidebook states) but belay is still possible. tchnorton - 14/Sep/05 |
