Route Description:
Routes  at Leana Rann na Bhfaoileann, Owey.       Gr B  70702325These routes are at the NW end of Owey, beyond 'Holy Jasus Wall' (Binn Dubh).  Descent is by abseil.   This takes the narrow south facing slab, probably the most notable feature thereabouts, but not very visable from most positions on the clifftop.  Start easily on the right, using whatever protection is available, as it becomes sparse higher up.  Move thinly towards the middle , climb a poorly protected groove to easier ground, and finish up on spectacular jugs to the top.  Lovely route on perfect granite.
