Summary:
Several abseil points – some quite tricky, but all fairly short – a 50-metre rope is sufficient. Plenty of climbing sections. Some abseil points are very dangerous (no easy way out). All anchors are sound (as at April 2017). A few deep pools. No access problems. Parking available at the hotel or on the campsite.
