These clean and appealing walls are home to some great
stamina test-pieces. One drawback is that most of the
routes are condition dependent and need sunshine and
minimal humidity. The first four routes are situated 30m
north of the main crag above a grass slope.
Approach (see page 166) -
From the base of the
approach to the boulder beach, head right (looking out)
for 100m.
