description

From the camping area follow the old Castle Rock track for 100m then a vague track to the left for about 400m up the hill and under the main boulder. Keep going left through a narrow gap and the route is on the left wall. Sustained.

Start on the left wall. Bridge the gap up to the first bolt and pull onto the wall. Head up to a second bolt and then left and up to a third. Easier climbing leads to the top.

A few years ago there was basically Frog Buttress and Coolum. Since then there has been more development than Barangaroo and South East Queensland should be on any climbers radar no matter what your style. Except ice climbing, definitely no ice climbing. But over 1250 routes with hard sport, multipitches and quality trad to make a great trip.
