If you are considering going climbing here, please understand, appreciate and accept the following -

  1. Dairy Farm (DFQ) is a defunct granite quarry that was blast-mined when it was active. As such, the internal integrity of the walls is unknown and rock fall has been observed by climbers through the years.

  2. DFQ is NOT a playground or a gym, where risks are minimised for you. Please ensure that you possess adequate outdoor climbing skills and are able to protect yourself.

  3. There is a chance that you might be fined by NParks for going "off-trail" under park regulations.

  4. Please practice good stewardship of the area and educate yourself on "Leave No Trace principles.

Summary

The granite is smooth and hard, making smearing difficult.

Handholds and footholds are usually small and flat. Lots of crimps. Not unusual for features in the rock to be very negative.

Description

An old quarry, Dairy Farm is located off Upper Bukit Timah Road.

The crag is comprised of a hill feature that has been quarried through the middle leaving steep cliff faces on two sides.

Quarrying activities in the area ceased relatively recently, leaving loose rocks in the area.

Approach

The approach is a very easy 5 min walk from the car park at the intersection of Upper Bukit Timah Road and Dairy Farm Road.
