Getting There

From the parking area off the A82, follow the path that crosses the River Coupall by a footbridge and then passes beside the Lagangarbh Cottage. Follow the path to an intersection in about 200m. To head towards the Waterslide and the more eastern buttresses, follow the path left (goes towards everything east of North Buttress). To head towards Slime Wall and everything west of this, follow the path to the right up towards the obvious Great Gully.
