Tuesday Meets: Hobnail Buttress
July 19, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Climbing on minor crags of County Wicklow every Tuesday evening.
Suitable for all levels.
Glendalough’s Hobnail Buttress is a smaller crag high on right above the Miner’s Village as you walk in. Often overlooked and overshadowed by the Main Face, it is well worth a visit. You can pick up a track that starts just beyond the end of the upper lake as the trees on your right give way to ferns.(The start of the trail zig-zags through the trees)
Route details are in the Wicklow guidebook.
