Description

Skye rock climbing Long mountain routes in the Cuillin are what most climbers come to Skye for and with good reason. The incredibly rough Gabbro offers incredible friction and there are classic routes at all grades many with great history behind them. A full range of mountaineering skills are called for as descents from many of the crags can be complex and demanding. Maybe because of that, the satisfaction from competing a long route, on a glorious summer day and walking out, as the sun sets over the Atlantic, is every bit as comparable with long rock routes in the Alps.
