Route Description:

IN Glenlough Bay, 3 KM North East of the An Port road end a 30 metre tower sits on the beach between the high and low water lines. GR569908. This tower is an extremely serious climb, a fall from the last 12 metres would be fatal.

Pitch 1: 15m 4a. Starting on the high water line at the southern end of the landward face, climb the knobbly quartz to a small stance and make a superb rising traverse above the roofs/cave towards the sea to a large airy ledge above the void.

Pitch 2: 35m 5a. Follow a raising traverse North to the center of the sea ward face. Climb the right trending fault to the southern end of the knife edge summit ridge. Scramble along ridge to summit.
