Description

The Swampland was actually discovered and developed prior to the rest of the Balkans but the developers didn't explore enough to find the rest. None-the-less this little area has some fun traverses and straight up problems with a lovely sandy landing.

This cave is east facing so it stays dry in the rain. The rock is a bit sandy in places but in general it is good quality.

If you have benefited from climbing infrastructure in NSW, please consider making a donation towards maintenance costs. The Sydney Rockclimbing Club Rebolting Fund finances the replacement of old bolts on existing climbs and the maintenance of other hardware such as fixed ropes and anchors. The SRC purchases hardware, such as bolts and glue, and distributes them to volunteer rebolters across the state of New South Wales. For more information, including donation details, visit https://sydneyrockies.org.au/rebolting/

Approach

Referring to the location map park 10m into Mill Dr. North Rocks just off Barclay Rd. Walk down the "big dipper" to the bridge and jump over the railing and walk underneath. SwampLand is on the other side of Darling Mills Creek just right of the bridge.

Alternatively, walk down to the creek from the Trenches or the Frontline and head south (the way the creek flows) until you see the Swampland on your right.
