The Cluan Tiers are a range of hills near the town of Westbury in Northern 'Tasmania'. On the western side facing the Liffey Valley, is a substantial dolerite escarpment about 2km long and up to 90m high, but only two of the faces have been deemed worthy of climbing. The cliff is unusual for dolerite as it is generally void of cracks, and forms overhanging blocky faces with big roofs. Consequently the crag has been developed as a sport climbing area. The nature of the rock lends itself to steep, difficult climbing, and the main wall in particular, is quite intimidating. The cliff faces south-west and does not see sunlight until well into the afternoon, making it an ideal summer crag. Climbers should come prepared for cold weather as it is an alpine area subject to the full force of westerly weather. The views to the western tiers are glorious, making it a spectacular location for climbing.

Access is remarkably easy, being just 45 minutes drive from Launceston and a 10 minute walk on a track to the top of the cliff. From Launceston travel to Westbury and continue another 9km on the old highway to Exton. Turn left at Exton onto C502, signposted Quamby Brook and Golden Valley. Continue straight ahead at the crossroads after 4km. About 3km later is a gravel road on the left signposted to the 'Cluan Tier'. From here it is 16km on logging roads to the cliff. Follow the main 'Cluan Tier' Road and after about 12km is a crossroads. Take the road on the right which goes steeply up a hill. At the top of the hill, keep following the main road and take left hand turns at the two intersections you come across. The road passes underneath a powerline and curves around to meet the powerline again about 1km further. Park here at the powerline easement marked by a cairn on the left. Follow the powerline easement up the hill for 10 minutes to the top of the cliff. After some easy bashing through a grove of ferns for about 100m, there is a good gravel track up the easement. At the powerpole closest to the cliff edge, turn left and follow a rough path for 50m to the descent gully marked by a cairn. A short descent gully leads to the first cliff while the main cliff is about 100m further around to the right.

-
Climbers have probably been aware of these cliffs for years, being obvious from the road to Liffey Falls. Gerry Narkowicz scrub bashed up the hill from the western side in May 2006 and realised the potential of the cliff. He made the first climbing trip to the area with Nick Hancock on 10/6/06 and two routes were climbed and another three projects were bolted over three days.

- Description:

Mt Wellington, the grand old lady of Tasmanian climbing. A series of buttresses and tiers that bring grown men to tears and where climbers make pacts with God, Neon or otherwise. There is so much history to this crag, listed in successive guidebooks, magazine articles and on the web. Regarding guidebooks, past or present; beware when any route description says, thought provoking, aka, there is a high change you could die. A safe way to determine the safety of a route is to take note of retreat slings and re-thread one yourself. Let some-one else’s epic evidence be your guide.
“The Mountain” is the alpha male of Australian suburban crags. It has an alpine flavour and with huge exposure – sitting on a lonely belay ledge, 1400m above Hobart, is cathartic. The rock itself, dolerite, has been lifted by volcano, frozen by winter snow and cracked by countless summer suns. The rock is friable and it is not uncommon to hear a hold hollow out under your desperate paws. Most people stay the classics as most of the bad stuff has been pulled off by some poor sod before you.
Lots of people like the Northern Buttress, lots of other climbers head to the Fiddlesticks or Moonraker for their multi-pitch fix and the others seek out some Jurassic route with rusted pitons and flaring cracks. Me, I like the tiers in the middle, lots of varied climbing on tall buttresses. Whatever draws you here and however well you climb, bring a helmet, bring a fleece and bring your courage, it will help you go further when everything else is telling you to bail!
On a sunny day, don’t arrive too late as the climber’s carpark only has places for about five vehicles. Beware climbing soon after winter as the ice has played its timeless games and expanded and loosened the rock. Be prepared for any weather, any time. Other than that, enjoy the Pipes experience – it’s unique.

Step Tier is a place that maintains its popularity simple becasue it houses some of the best kick-ass natural climbing on the Mountain. The apex of the climbing is, Moonraker. This climb really is a middle grade, photogenic,magic number that sermounts the step and then blasts straight up into the heavens. Even the rap down is a doozey. Step Tier also has easy access from the Organ Pipes Track and can be easily pin-pionted from there. It is about a four minute walk (left) from the Northern Butress track junction.

Waterworks is the central crag of Hobart and after a stint in the ugly corner has come out looking quite good. Why? As of 2009 the place has been given a total overhaul with a chest high fence with a gate just for climbers provided by the HCC. It has a flat area in front of the cliff for the kids to play which is a rare treat for family climbers, and finally, almost all routes have been retro bolted as of 2009 - well that is as safe as you can be on quarried rock. You can now safely do a few routes after uni or work and be home for tea.
The trade route for the place is Serial Driller (21). I quite like, Death Unto Racist (20) and Bastard Cancer (21), both soft touches but fun climbing. Paul Prichard is a resident climber and in early 2010 he added a climb near Jesus Built My Hammer Drill (18). It is great to see that such a fine climber is out there adding to the Hobart scene.
It's marvelous to have a city crag where mates can meet and you don’t have to haul your ass to get to. I would love to know who has done all the routes here in a day? A reasonable challange for the gym buffed boys and girls. Check it out. DB
