3 distinct cliffs below the Tiger Face with a plethora of routes in a small area.
Bubbly, sharp pockets of Rhyolite. Long single pitch routes (53m). Interesting face climbing. Well bolted, but 4 trad routes do exist here.
Routes are arranged L to R.
Access from the carpark at Cotswold Rd. to the National Park is across gazetted private land - from the sluice gate:
East Face - Sluice gate
walk up roughly 400m to the National Parks sign:
East Face - Maroon National Park boundary
This is the start of the National Park. Visitors are urged to stay on the path or use established tracks, rather than blazing a new trail.
Thru the sluice gate & up the hill, turn right at the grassy paddock and follow the fire track:
North West Columns - Track turn-off
follow this around till you arrive at this paddock:
Paparazzi Cliff - Fire track to Paparazzi
start angling up to a steep fire track & follow this till it runs into another fire track, turn right & follow this across several shallow gullies till you arrive at a deep gully with wood steps:
Paparazzi Cliff - descent into last gully
up the steep slope (Heartbreak Ridge) on the other side (110m elevation gain) & follow the ridge up to the Insignificant Cliff:
The Insignificant Cliff - Insignificant - stitched.JPG
From here, follow the cliff line right & upwards up a series of slopes till you arrive at the Paparazzi & Graveyard Ridge turn-off:
Paparazzi Cliff - Paparazzi-Graveyard Ridge turn-off
Approximately 1.5hrs access time.
Sport bolting is a big no-no here. If you place a bolt here, you'd better have a damn good reason, even then, expect it to be chopped.
First developed in 2004 by Herb Brandmeier & John Du Bont. Robert Staszewski & Terry Svingen established two trad lines here in 2005. Mark Gamble & Terry established a trad line in 2006. Albert Shaw & Peter Beams another trad line in 2015. Herb & John have continued to add to & develop the crag from the original 7 routes.

This guidebooks seeks to shed light on this community and blocks of choice with all the information, skills and knowledge to open the door for you to explore all the bouldering that Queensland has to offer.

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.
