Ethic inherited from Freycinet National Park

Crag Stewards

Rock climbers please contact the Crag Steward (freycinet@climbersclubtas.org.au) if you have any queries or concerns regarding social or environmental impacts of rock climbing at this crag.

Do not email regarding general travel, seasonal advice, or lost property - this is not the Steward’s role. If you have important safety information to communicate (e.g. risks due to recent and large rock falls) please also consider updates on thesarvo forum, Facebook group and/or online guidebooks as appropriate. Please copy in cct@climbersclubtas.org.au if you feel you have a high-level concern which may imminently impact the crag or climbing community.

Non-climbers, other users, land managers: please also contact cct@climbersclubtas.org.au if you have important climbing related queries at this location.

Statewide ethics

• The operation and use of drones by park visitors on reserved land including national parks is not permitted

• Peregrine Falcons nest from July - December each year. It’s important that climbers don’t climb near active nests during this period. Known sites (non exhaustive) are: Sand River (Far East, The Panopticon), Bare Rock (R of the Boneyard, L of Bisso of Orange), Rocky Cape, Pubic Wall/Duck Reach, Hillwood, Gunners Quoin, Lowdina.

• Please note that Tasmania has notoriously patchy phone reception for particular service providers. Telstra is the most reliable. An emergency Personal Locator Beacon or similar is recommended kit when climbing in remote locations.

Grade Route

A small cliff line which lies between Amos East Face and North Face. The rock is good quality and has some interesting features. The vertical part of the wall is about 15m tall. Best accessed from the top by following the Mt Amos track to just before the summit and then cutting down the hillside in the direction of Mt Dove’s Trig point. Rap in or walk down either side.

Start beneath the obvious featured arete. Climb the RHS of the arete until the first rooflet. Turn the arete to the LHS and continue up the diagonal to the top.

As for LSP but continue up the RHS to climb through the two rooflets and mount the jug. Sew up crack with your smallest wires before teetering up the arete using side pulls and chicken heads.
