D | ★★★ The NWMC Route - with Elena Ruiz | 300m | ★★★ Classic | Thu 8th Jun 2023 | ||||
Totally unexpected experience since we were planning to only hike Errigal. However, we found a person around the route very fan of scrambling and he recommended us this route, along with Tower Ridge (which we didn't do it).
We've decided to do it as is (without rope) since it felt always super safe. I think today we discovered a new passion, combining hiking and climbing: scrambling. |
