Description

A combined climbing/cycling trip with Tim. Cycled part way in, a big bonus at the end of the day! A bit of drizzle kept the rock damp, luckily we were sheltered from the worst of the wind or it would have been a no-goer.

Area : Lochnagar and the Dubh Loch Basin (Summer)

While Lochnagar is primarily a winter climbing venue, there are several excellent summer cimbs, the most popular of which is the classic Eagle Ridge. Creag an Dubh Loch has a wealth of high quality long routes across the grade range and of a variety of styles. Eagle Rocks on the opposite side of the loch are home to some good clean slab climbs.
