Hiking

Apart from the nice views over the top of the 'Craig,' this is a good aiming point in bad weather. With the wall here too, it makes for a good rest stop and a wind break.

Hiking

In wet weather the down climb section becomes incredibly hard to stay upright on. Slipped multiple times, a few people even had to do a bum shuffle down for safety. Would recommend reversing the route to go up the muddy side and down the more rocky side.

Hiking

Amazing views from the top, fairly easy to get through too via the nature reserve.
