Resumen
Diorita
Roadside crag with a sunny aspect, which can be climbed on for most of the year. Good quality natural trad lines, mostly single pitch, although some two-pitch routes may be found.
Descripción
A classic of Scotland for good trad cragging. Provides grades from Moderate to E8 in a beautiful setting. The crag is divided in two main areas: The Dun Mor hill (containing the Upper and Lower Doonie) to the west above the quarry, and the Main Cliffs (containing several buttresses), which sit on top of the scree slope near the road.
Descent: easy walk-offs are possible on the side of the hills, however there is a convenient ab point on top of Red Wall (E1) on the Upper North-West crag, and another by the trees left of the top of Vindaloo on the Upper Doonie.
Restricciones
No issues.
Acceso
Drive on the B955 towards the Glen Clova Hotel. When you reach the hotel, turn left towards the Glen Doll Car Park. After driving 4.10km (2.55miles), you'd have arrived to the base of the slope from where you want to hike up to the crag. Park on the side of the road (
56.865432, -3.163804) , being considerate of farmers and landowners, and avoiding the obvious laybys used for passing vehicles. Alternatively, continue driving for another 0.5km (2000ft) and you'll find a nice old quarry where parking is much more convenient (56.867293, -3.168910). This second option gives direct access to The Doonie.
Ética
No bolts or fixed anchors. For lower-off, either walk down or set up a rappel station.
Always check possible BIRD NESTING RESTICTIONS that may be active.
