    Tips

    April 30, 2019

    Cioch na h-Oighe is a classic scramble. It is airy and exposed so it isn’t really for the faint-hearted or those with a fear of heights. The ridge is about 2 feet (0.6 m) wide in places with big drops on both sides. Care should be taken and I would suggest this is not one to tackle in wet or poor weather.

    If descending towards Sannox, there are some large slabs and loose rocks to negotiate on the steep descent, but great views of the Devil's Punchbowl.
