Crag Stewards Victoria

Crag Stewards Victoria is about climbers taking action to protect the cultural and environmental values at the places we love to climb for future generations to enjoy.

CSV aims to engage Victorian climbers, on a voluntary basis, to contribute to the operation of a stewardship program with five main branches of activity that are strongly linked and supportive of each other.

• Establish a network of stewards assigned to distinct crags to implement our program at that crag
• Assess and monitor the impact of climbing on cultural and environmental values using structured assessment tools
• Collaborate with Traditional Owners and Land Managers to implement protection, restoration and maintenance works Promote understanding and respect for traditional cultures and their heritage.
• Encourage best climbing practices with the climbing community via good communication and education.

We welcome interested climbers who would like to get involved as a steward or volunteer.
