Übersicht

A large cave with a low entrance which opens up into a large room. It consists of boulders of varying lengths and difficulty, all are overhanging. VERY VERY SANDY - Rock is shockingly bad in places.

Beschreibung

It becomes very sandy when people haven't been climbing there much, bring a brush or two, once the sand is gone the holds are fine. Is super chossy in some places so please be careful what you pull, check the holds before climbing, all climbs are on the best bits of rock in the cave.

Einschränk.

Private Land, climbing is not permitted.

Zustieg

Best approached from poets Road, is visible as you drive up the road. Walk up the main Knocklofty walking track from the end of poets road until you reach Cathect wall, then follow the line of cliffs to the left of that wall and you will reach the cave, it is roughly 100m from Cathect wall.
