About Tunnel Crag

Tunnel Crag is a roadside schist outcrop situated near Pass of Brander and Loch Awe in Argyll. The rock character is dark, compact schist featuring sharp crimps, vertical crack lines, and steep face features. Facing west, the crag catches late afternoon sun and benefits from wind currents flowing through the pass to dry rapidly after rain. The grade distribution offers quality trad climbs from VS to E2, featuring classic lines like Tunnel Wall. The approach takes less than five minutes up a short hillside path directly from roadside laybys along the A85. Road noise from the nearby highway is a constant background feature during a session.
