Description:© (christo)

A great roof and some dank, mouldy, shitty climbs with fabulous views across the harbour to the bridge, opera house and city skyline.

Useful Info: The local council has BANNED CLIMBING HERE!!!! (But it is worth a look).

Approach:© (christo)

Balls Head reserve is at the end of 'Balls Head' Rd, Waverton. Park in the parking area in the middle of the loop road and walk south, down a series of steps towards the harbour. 'Clocks' is on the far side of the boulder at the bottom of the stairs. Walk around to the left to get to it.
