Description

See photo.

The information board claims that there are over 150 developed routes; I saw more than 20 bolted lines, most of them single-pitch, a few multi-pitch (2 or 3). The crag is U-shaped, and there are bolted lines on both walls, so it's easy to chase sun/shade during different times of the day. There are abundant opportunities for trad climbing, although many such lines in the frequently visited sections of the walls have been bolted.

I have not seen any form of guidebook for this crag. The local climbing community is small (20 or so active climbers), and I met some of them in a bouldering gym, who only informed me the grades of various lines after I climbed them. So my suggestion is either go there with locals, or inspect the line and decide for yourself.

Getting There

Drive along the scenic loop. At a downhill hairpin turn, you'll see the information board for the crag. Park there and the climbs are just two minutes walk.
