Gara gorge is part of Oxley Wild Rivers National Park and access is open:

Zustieg

If approaching via the track walk for about 500m from the bridge, the private sector is the largest drop in the upper gorge and the waterfall is a clear landmark. Walk straight down the gully. To access most of the climbs on the left side, cross above the waterfall and walk all the way over the hump and drop down a saddle on the far side and then come back.

If approaching from the cascades keep to the far right side of the gorge when the river kinks left to the waterfall, over 'Yoda's cave' to the saddle and down.

Ethik übernommen von Upper Gara Gorge

Basically, the climbers of Armidale are a pretty laid back, free thinking group and as long as you don’t go out of your way to put people’s noses out of joint you’ll be amazed at how helpful they can be. The quickest way to piss people off is by ripping off projects. There are a few devoted locals making an effort and putting up quality new climbs. A lot of time, hard work and even money goes into their endeavours (cracks can be projects too) and there is too much unclimbed rock around to justify destroying someone else’s motivation. Any routes marked as such or not in the guide should be left alone. The simple courtesy of asking first may save you from being stripped naked and being staked out for the crows to pick your eyes out. If putting up new routes is your thing then please feel free. The only request is that you avoid placing hangers or conspicuous bolts around the Gara Boulders as we are already viewed as an environmental menace by the NPWS - bolting in National Parks is actually illegal.

Up the slick wall past three bolts. Wires for the belay.

Erstbegehung: Brian Cork, 1996

On the north end on the other side, and almost under, the waterfall is a great little bouldering area only accessible during extended drought.

At normal level this is completely soaked, it needs to be quite dry and will probably need a good clean.

Start low down on the left and zig zag up

On the downstream side is a slabby wall with a huge gnamma feature like a big cauldron. The top is very close to the School girl boulder

Start in the cauldron, mantle left, then diagonally right across the face to a bulging crux finish

Erstbegehung: Brendan Heywood & Ben Vincent, 29 Jan 2023
