I was up at the rock last weekend... Beautiful but very dangerous, I obviously didn't climb the rock but thought nothing of making my way over to it, but about 2-3 mins after leaving the crevice between the rock and the ridge/mountain an almighty bang occurred and roughly 20-25 pieces of massive rock came of the side of the structure landing in the very place I was. I kid you not it sounded like a bomb and I was incredibly shook and very quickly made my way out of there. Had I been standing where I was only moments previous (I was in the crevice for about 20 mins) It likely would not have been a good outcome. BE AWARE, there were no warning signs about the dangers of falling rocks and to be honest the signs at the carpark clearly state it is a viewing point only. When I was there I noticed that the entire base of the structure is littered with rock/boulders but not particularly experienced in hiking in that type of terrrain, I passed no remarks. Now it was a fairly windy day when I was there and naturally that would likely have played a part, and on a good day I would be tempted to venture over again as it truly is a very unique hike but on that day I was a very lucky man.

aye ive always looked at these and thought both "theyd make for a good climb" but also "its probably going to break apart the moment i try"
outstanding is right!
Thats awesome.
As you said in the video, none of those rocks on the edge can be trusted to hold.
Very very very scary and a belay tied to a root of heather 😥 unreal achievement 👍
Hi Oisin,
Are there any access issues to this area?
Cheers.
