Summary

Easy access, great views of the valley and well featured golden granite. Magic

Description

With sweeping views of the avon valley and golden granite Walyunga is not to be missed. The granite is clean and has a number of surprisingly clean and angular features. Grades range from V0-V10 with a host of unclimbed rock still to go. The majority of the quality problems that have been established tend to be in the V7+ range.

Access issues

Located within Walyunga National Park - please respect the wildlife and natural flora.

Approach

Park here (-31.701718, 116.101391) at the scenic lookout.

Take Toodyay Rd east for 12km from Roe Hwy and turn left onto O'Brien Rd. After 15kms turn left onto Ewing Rd and follow to the car park at the end. The boulders are a 5-10 minute walk down from the carpark in the valley and slightly to the left.

Ethic

Climbing is a privilege not a right – please respect the bushland and the rock. Where possible preserve the natural flora and keep to tracks to minimise impact. Clean tick marks and caked chalk with a good scrubbing. No chipping or gluing.
