Dún Séanna Head

Southern Ireland, IE

The sandstone sea cliffs of Dún Séanna Head just east of Dingle Town offer some superb single-pitch routes in a very atmospheric setting. The rock is steep with plenty of positive holds. Most of the routes follow cracks or corners but the standout feature is the slender sea stack known as The Needle. The routes on the west section of the crag can only be accessed by abseil, so an abseil rope is essential. It’s possible to scramble down to the platform below the routes on the east side. Most routes are well protected but carry plenty of gear as the pitches are long.
