Kinnoull Hill Quarry

International > Europe > United Kingdom > Scotland > Lowland Outcrops

Description

This small disused quarry has a limited number of boulder problems and one trad route and one sport route. The rock is of questionably quality, but if you are in the area and desperate to climb it can provide some entertainment for an evening or two.

The climbs are on two separate buttress, the first is immediately obvious as you enter the quarry, the second is located deeper in the tree towards the back of the quarry.

Getting There

From the center of Perth head East and cross one of the two bridges. After crossing the bridge continue on east on any of the roads (they all end up climbing the hill). The quarry is sign posted as a car park, and is found off Hattan Road.

Drive in the quarry and Park up.
