Quite the traversity. An airy steep multi-pitch sport route which stays in the shade until 2pm. Due to the tourist track running underneath this route keep an eye on knocking off loose rock on the 2nd and 4th pitches and avoid doing the route during busy holiday periods (xmas/easter etc). The first three pitches can be done by themselves and is choss free (35m rap back to ground). Bring 16 draws and a couple of single length runners.

  1. 40m (19) Slab up the wall with a left trend to the big horizontal break underneath the huge roof. Scuttle hard left for 15m then finish up nice purple face. Pull on the hanging short rope to avoid an unpleasant mantle onto the shale ledge. 14 bolts. You can bail left from here by walking off along ledge and around to tourist track.

  2. 7m (2) Crawl right along shale slot to large ledge belay. There is a fixed rope across this currently. Belay off single bolt and low first lead bolt on next pitch.

  3. 15m (20) Steep wall and slabby corner to sweet ledge belay. 6 bolts. 35m rap from here (70m rope doubled) makes it to the ground.

  4. 30m (19) Right and up steep wall with sections of shale and looseness. Be very careful not to knock anything off onto track below. 9 bolts. Belay on top of cliff (no rap back down possible from top). To exit walk 50m east (rock cairns) and spot the rock pagoda which forms a natural tourist lookout across a narrow gully to the north. Scramble down into the overgrown gully (pink string on trees marking trail) and up the other side, arriving on the right side of the pagoda. Follow the tourist track back up the hill.
