Itinerary description
Note; data is slightly inaccurate as the app failed at the top of the ascent where we turned back. So to calculate the exact distance, time etc. just double it; i.e. trail was actually 4.46miles or 6.8km. Maybe someone can tell me how to amend my data...!
The hike isn't technical but there is quite a bit of bouldering on the ascent which can easily be tackled without assistance. We decided not to do the loop this time but walked up past the ruined house a bit more but it gets steeper after this point.
If you are just out for a short hike and want to do some bouldering then this is perfect as there is often others on the trail, although there is no actual trail to follow it’s quite easy to navigate as there is only one way up.
Having done the full loop before I strongly recommend it but don’t make this decision lightly as it is much further (twice as far again), set off early and as always take plenty of water.
