33 | ★★ The Great Affair
Demanding bouldery cruxes and intimidatingly huge dynos. According to Dave Jones, 'Malcolm only ever bolted this because he'd just done Mirage and thought he could dyno the full height of the cliff'. Start about 15m R of The Seventh Pillar, 2-3m R of Slytherin.
Set: Malcolm Matheson (and DS added by Nalle 2017), 1993 FFA: Dave Jones freed pitch 3 ~2000, Nalle Hukkatival p1 & p2 Oct 2017, Oct 2017 | 60m, 3, 8 | Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre | ||
34 | Askleipos
Extension to Kundalini. Adds another 7m of hard climbing on thin crimps and pockets and a final jump to the ledge. FA: Alex Megos, 2015 | 25m | Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre | ||
33 | ★★ Sparticus
Hardest route in the Grampians? Start: Link-up of Daniel Or-Tiger into Somoza via some mind-blowing climbing. Very sustained with a bouldery crux. FA: Nathan Hoette, 2002 | 25m | Hollow Mountain (N & NE side of Mt. Stapylton) | ||
Sport | |||||
33 | ★★ CO2
Scartrek-Diplomacy link then Stugang Ext gaston crux into The Wormhole Search. FA: Fred Bonnet, 2009 | Norton Summit | |||
34/35 | ★★★ The Full Seam (project) | 18m, 11 | Mt Coolum | ||
33 | ★★ A Lother One
As for Brain Haemorrhage for about 12m, then trend L up the biggest baddest steepest part of this sector, finishing a couple of metres R of Bloodline. Going left into Bloodline is not on route. Do not climb into Bloodline at all. FA: Set: 2017 NA: Jorge Diaz-Rullo, Sep 2022 | Blue Mountains | |||
34 | The Great Jelly Flood
Great fun. Climbs up to 1 move before Einfinger.... crux and busts out right to finish up old open projects. FA: Tom O'Halloran, Mar 2021 | Blue Mountains | |||
33 | ★★★ Keep on Truckin'
Pooferator into Truckstop into Horseshoe into Fabricator. | 25m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★★ Tiger Cat
Wowsers! All time mega classic. Start as per Aristocat, boulder its main crux and then head into a mind boggling amount of sustained climbing, culminating with a potentially heart breaking finish. Absolute stonker! Stu Monique Jorge flash NA: Jorge Diaz-Rullo NA: Andrea Hah, 2013 FFA: Lee Cossey, 2013 | 25m | Blue Mountains | ||
34 | ★★★ Nilp
Climb Mr Squiggle, then just before the anchor head left into steepness to the top of the crag. Tom FA: 29 Oct 2019 | 45m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★ Somalia
Deterred many very strong suitors for many years and finally fell to the Kiwi Wizz kid FA: Wiz Fineron, 2012 | Arapiles | |||
33 | Dougie Does Projects
He says he cant but its the belief he can. Set: Doug Bell, Jan 2018 | 25m | New Nowra - Braidwood Road | ||
33 | ★★★ Beta Vinyl
Starts 5m right of Tiger Cat and is feisty straight off the deck with some brilliant and brutal bouldering. Suck in some oxygen at halfway then head up to join Love Cats at its crux, following this to where LC and TS trend back left. Instead peel off rightward under roof to motor up the headwall. Hoik your rig left and right while trying not to feel like a flag in a stiff wind. Sitting Bull joins into the same headwall finish. Stu FFA: Lee Cossey, 2013 NA: Jorge Diaz-Rullo, Sep 2022 | 30m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★ Cock Smoker
Set: Jake, 12 Mar 2018 | 30m, 12 | New Nowra - Braidwood Road | ||
33 | ★★★ Sitting Bull
Originally bolted by Rowan Druce and generously offered to the masses, Tom O'Halloran, seeing a classic on offer, was quick to pounce. Start as per Brummel Hook (also possible to start up 1st 2 bolts of Tiger Snatch), then head straight up the immaculate orange stone to finish on the high black head wall. Slightly easier than Tiger Cat (opinions are divided on this...) and originally given 32, but has now seen an upgrade. Andrea , Ryan FFA: 2012 | Blue Mountains | |||
33 | ★★ Space Bandidos
Climb 'Astrobatics', then keep girdling to the right across Mr Meeseeks until you end up at the end of Desperado. The longest and hardest route in the cave. FA: Sam Bowman, 23 Oct 2016 | 32m | Flinders Peak (limited access) | ||
34 | ★★★ The Milkbar
Start as for Lord Elphinstone and The Elephant Man then heads right to vague prow and all the way up up up to the top roof. The boulder in the roof is a tricky one, finishing with an all points off dyno a loooong way above the ground. Finishes out on the highest, furthest out part of the cliff. All time! Stopping at the hands free rest under the roof is an insanely good 33. FA: 11 Nov 2016 | 45m | Blue Mountains | ||
34 | ★★★ Sue's Last Ride
Climb Sitting Bull to the final break. Up a few moves then start heading right past bolt to come into Bandula crux. Finish as for Bandula. Lots of moves, no rest! Tom FFA: 20 Mar 2016 | Blue Mountains | |||
33 | ★★★ Flower Power
One of the hardest routes in 'Victoria'. A sustained full frontal assault on the highest part of the cave. Start: Start just R of DF. FA: Nathan Hoette, 2003 | 20m | Victoria Range | ||
33 | Trouser Snake
Just another incredible looking line on Taipan. It's the orange streak directly above Snake Flake's anchor, climbed in a single pitch from the ground. Set: Equipped by Ben Cossey & Al Pryce late Oct 08 FA: Lee Cossey, 2013 | 48m | Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre | ||
33 | ★★★ Groove Train
An extension to Groovy, this was briefly the hardest route on the wall and may be the best. Climb it in 1 pitch from the ground. The sheer face above the finish of the Groovy groove is sparsely bolted (despite a dubious retrobolt by Dave Graham ... which lasted about 5 seconds after he left) up the black streak to a lower off. Can seep. Equipped by Zac Vertrees and Mike Law (with the top lower-off added by Jake Bresnehan), this was attempted by a who's who of Australian hard-men over 7 years before Ben's success. Ben Cossey FA of Groove Train https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-PsXKda6JU FA: Ben Cossey, 2009 | 45m, 2, 10 | Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre | ||
33 | Sneaky Snake
The visionary black streaks and water grooves about 5-8m R of Naja. The joke used to be that Steve Monks "marked his turf" at the top of Naja after every shot; it looks like perhaps Lee did too! Start as for Naja. Up Naja for 2 or 3 bolts then traverse right via an obvious undercling flake a few metres above the low roof. Use long (2m) extenders for this section. Now follow the incredible grooves, ignore the half-height anchor, and continue up via amazing sustained climbing on slopey edges to the top of the wall in one single mega pitch. Rap anchor (55m). FA: Lee Cossey, 2011 | 55m | Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre | ||
33 | Sack of Woe
4m right of Up Jumped the Devil. Climbs straight up. Nowhere to hide on this. One of the best bouldery routes in the mountains. New sequence makes it a bit easier than the FA beta. FA: Tom O'Halloran | 10m | Blue Mountains | ||
34 | ★★★ Mr Pinky
Variation to Mr Pink. FA: Alex Megos | Blue Mountains | |||
34 | The Old Dog
a.k.a Enter the Dragon, a.k.a. Mortal Combat. This is the subtle groove about 6-8m R of Mr J's arête. "33/34" with tricky beta on both cruxes and lots of kneebar action, says Alex. Start at the DRB at the base of Venom. Trend L past FH, through desperately blank looking bulge, to follow the line of anti-holds up the attractive faint groove, joining Venom at the big break. Nalle reported "8B boulder section with very precise and shoulder intensive moves, bad feet and the two worst slopers I’ve ever seen on a route. This is followed by an easier but absolutely amazing scoopy section to a pretty ok rest. From there you set up for one of the craziest dynos I’ve ever done! If you stick the low percentage dyno, there’s still a sustained run-out section with long moves to the anchor". Set: Equipped Rich Heap, 2000 FA: 2000 FFA: Alex Megos, May 2015 | 18m, 6 | Mt Stapylton Amphitheatre | ||
34 | Einfingerkuppenaufleger
Yet another impressive send by Alex, giving it hard 34. Shared start with Astral Traveller. Head up to small ledge and straight up with increasing difficulty. Set: Emil Mandyczewsky, 2013 FFA: Alex Megos, 1 Apr 2015 | 30m | Blue Mountains | ||
34 | ★★★ Hiding Vegetables (Linkup)
Beta Vinyl into Tiger Cat. All the cruxes and no rest, outrageous! Grade unconfirmed. FA: Tom O'Halloran, 2020 | 30m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | Over Monkey
No under dogs here. Shares a similar style to its neighbour Rhythm & Stealth. A lovely start up Impossible Princess leads directly into the wall above, past the Rhythm Method anchors and trending rightward and becoming rather tricky. Finishes on the same anchors as Rhythm & Stealth. FA: Ben cossey | 18m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | Hats and Hoods
FA: Chris Webb-Parsons | 13m | Nowra | ||
33 | ★★★ CatDog (Linkup)
Tiger Cat to the half way jugs then across right and finish as for Beta Vinyl. The Don't Believe the Hype of Elphinstone. FA: Tom O'Halloran, 2015 | 35m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★★ Pussy Snatch (Linkup)
Tiger Snatch to the jump then head right into Kitten Mittens for the drive by move. Finish up Tiger Vinyl. A classic! FFA: 8 Nov 2018 | Blue Mountains | |||
33 | ★★★ Grey Area
Was for four years the hardest route in the country. A classic Miller route, involving a fine balance of power and precision. FA: Garth Miller, 1999 | 18m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★ Motorpussy
Steep, Hard, bloody awesome 4 metres right of Who'd be a cop project. Very hard climbing thru steep territory, many a strong lad had a crack before Chris got the tick. Set: Dave Gliddon FFA: Chris Webb, 2006 | 15m | Blue Mountains | ||
34 | Sneaky Old Fox (link-up)
The greatness of life is impossible to realise before you cast your eyes upon this, the route of all routes. At the time of completion it was the hardest route in the country and the hardest climbed by an Australian. Up Fantastic Mr Fox and without dangling about on the rest, bust up and into a thin crux until you reach Grey Area's rest, shake out here then finish up Grey Area and climb to the top of the cliff. FA: Lee Cossey, 2006 | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
34 | ★★★ To hot to handle
Rad rock, hard moves then the crux!! pull from a tiny crimp and its in the bag! Up Motor Pussy to 3rd bolt (??) then head right. FFA: Garth Miller, 2007 | 15m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | Mr Sneaky (link-up)
To avoid entirely stealing/climbing what was Ben's project (FMF), a variant was done in which all of the business of Ben's project is climbed. Hence the name. FA: Lee Cossey, 2004 | 18m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★ One on One
The right hand line in the 'second' cave. Awesome climbing thru a great roof to an extremely hard boulder at the lip. Good 27'ish to the lip, * . Bolted on lead by Macca and Dave. 2 metres leftt of Activation on buttress directly above where the track meets the crag Up wall to the roof, out roof, up headwall and right then thru top roof to point then jump. Excellent climbing through roof. Set: Macca & Dave FFA: Garth / Macca | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★★ Cheese Change
Start up Cheese Monster past the first crux. At the break climb right, past the crux of "Non-Dairy Cheese-Like Substitute". At the break under the roof, head straight out past slopes and edges (V9) and finish with a big move to the break. Awesomely sustained climb, vision and bolts by Robbie Le Breton, climbed by Vince Day. Route renamed on request of Vince Day in 2020. Set: Rob Lebreton FA: Vince Day, 2006 | 20m | Nowra | ||
33 | ★★★ Moonshadow
Start: up levitation then move leftwards into search and destroy, eliminates the batman start to SAD and is the BEST/ONLY way to climb this route!!! FA: Garth Miller | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | Baboon Banquet
Start off the pile of rocks above the ledge, 15m L of Chimp Chowder. Boulder problem start, to rightward traverse, then radical wall of exciting gymnastic moves lead to a feisty finish, classic! FA: vince day, 2006 | 16m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | Anal Palm
Direct finish to Touch and Go - a total one move wonder. An old open project sent by Chris Webb. Anchor is one good ringbolt and one old dynabolt. FA: Chris Webb, 2011 | 10m | Blue Mountains | ||
V11 | ★★★ Anger Management
Sit start matched on a large jug at the far right end of the cave. Traverse about a meter left on some crimps to meet the Sloper Rail line running along the roof. Follow this to the crack and all the way out the cave traversing right along the face before a scary top out. | Kiama | |||
33 | ★★ Tucker Time
Tucker Time is sooooo rad. A technical boulder problem on the face down low leads to a massive rest you can bury bodies in, then truckin' on upward is another little punch followed by the crux of Super Duper Goo and finish with the best roof climbing known to man. Skip the last two bolts in the roof, get a little slack and take the cleanest 20m fall you've ever had. Tucker Time. FA: Zac Vertrees FA: Zac Vertrees, 2005 | 23m | Blue Mountains | ||
34 | ★★★ Light Weight Baby
This route was previously known as The Sean Myles Project and bolted in around '92 by its English namesake. Like a woody problem on classic Arapilisian bums through a steep wall to finish up crimpy headwall. Start at base of roof left of Aristocrat (clip the 3 dynas with single biners for ease of climbing, and to keep rope away from holds). Slappy compression leads to base of seam. Clip bolt at lip and head straight up via pulls between edges and last bolt to easy finish and single bolt lower-off. FA: Ben Cossey | 10m, 5 | Arapiles | ||
33 | ★★ Saturation Point
Start: As for 'Some Kind of Bliss', then traverse a loooooong way before weaving up the wall above. A mission. FA: Lee Cossey, 2009 | 45m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★★ Haggisaurus Rex
All the moves had been done but no one was able to take care of this one until a climber from Scotland, Robbie Phillips visited Queensland. He sent the route on his last day in the country thereby establishing Queensland's current hardest Sport route. Bouldery start trending left on line of weakness, before joining into BTHTF at the bolt below the headwall (ignore bolts out right which need to be removed). Robbie re-named "Taking Care of Business Project" to "Haggisaurus Rex" due to the Dinosaur skin-like nature of the rock and the fact that Robbie only ate Haggis the whole time he was in Australia to maintain his Scottish Highlander Powers! Rumour has it they shipped 70 whole Haggis' to Australia just for Robbie..." Set: antoine moussette, 2010 FFA: robbiephillips, 2014 | 24m, 10 | Mt Coolum | ||
33 | ★★★ Fantastic Mr Fox
Ever imagined what the best route in the cosmos would be like?...wonder no longer and get yourself down to DF today! The most technical, fingery, tensiony, positiony, brain flaking hard route around. There is no route better. FA: Ben Cossey, 2006 | 18m | Blue Mountains | ||
V11 | ★★★ Ethics Terminator
The alternate unethical approach to https://www.thecrag.com/en/climbing/australia/sutherland/route/13097509 | Kiama | |||
33 | ★★ Punks Addiction
Joins the hardest bits of both routes and is supposedly a grade harder than each of them. At least two repeats, Chris Lindner in 2009 and Byam Keil in 2023. Start as for Pretty in Punk, finish as for Punks in the Gym. FA: David Jones | 25m, 9 | Arapiles | ||
34 | ★★ Mr Pink
Boulderyness to top of cliff, anchors over lip up high and left past the "lonely virgin" finger lock. Start: double dyno off cool slopes on boulder wall. FA: Benjamin P. Cossey, 2009 | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★ Startled Turkey
FA: Vince Day, 2009 | Blue Mountains | |||
33 | Der Kietzlig Hund (link-up)
"The Ticklish Dog". At times a link-up is better than both halves and this recent addition proves this. An absolute classic. Climb Dogbite to the bottom of the slab then go left via a fantastic boulder problem to the marginal rest on Mr Tickle, squeeze this for all it's worth then to the top of this route. FA: Ben Cossey, 2006 | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★★ Cheesecake
| Nowra | |||
33 | ★★★ Bowl of Milk
The left hand line in this feisty little cave. Campus the start and thrutch up to the single U-bolt anchor. Good times. FA: B.Cossey, 2000 FA: Ben Cossey, 2006 | 6m | Blue Mountains | ||
34 | ★★★ The White Ladder
Climb original White Ladder then continue via one more boulder problem to the ledge. | 17m | Nowra | ||
33/34 | ★★★ Direct Attack
Start Attack mode but go direct. FA: Ryan Sklenica | Nowra | |||
34 | ★★★ Little Baby Cheese
Extension of Cheese Gobbler that goes all the way to the top of the cliff via a whole bunch of hard independent climbing and then the top of The Big Cheese. Original vision by Robbie, new vision and execution by Tom. Set: Rob Lebreton FA: Tom O'Halloran, Jun 2021 | 35m | Nowra | ||
33 | ★★★ Street Walkin' Cheetah
The chalk at the start says 32, but the guidebook says 33. Batman start. Use rollers/extenders and skip the 5th or 6th bolt, so that rope drag doesn't make the crux easier! Set: P Sage, 2000 FFA: Ben Cossey, 2014 | 18m | Blue Mountains | ||
33 | ★★★ Mechanical Animals | 20m | Blue Mountains | ||
34/35 | ★★ The Seam
Start slightly left of Knifey Spooney. The fainted crack feature on that compact wall. This line link into the crux of Spoonman. Probably the hardest climb in Queensland at the moment. Set: Frey Yule, 2010 & Radest, 2013 FFA: Sam Bowman, 11 Aug 2019 | 20m, 10 | Mt Coolum | ||
34 | ★★★ White Ladder
Short but desperately powerful climbing. Excellent. Originally climbed as Attack Mode to the fixed biner and given grade 32. Start at the huge handlebar jug right of the massive fallen boulder. FA: Chris Webb | 13m | Nowra | ||
34 | ★★★ Little Empty Boat
Was Vince's project, eventually sent by Tom O'Halloran. Jump start off the boulder and then up up and away forever, topping the cliff to finish. Vince climbed it to the first anchors above the lip and called that Spacecake (30). FA: Vince Day FFA: 2012 | Blue Mountains | |||
34 | ★★★ The Big Cheese
A crazy extension to Metamorphosis climbing all the way to the top of the cliff. Endurance test piece. FA: Daniel Fisher, 13 Aug 2016 | 15 | Nowra | ||
33 | ★★★ Call of the Void
A striking line up the blank, overhanging shield. Easy climbing leads to a powerful crux with multiple options, all of which are hard. Followed by a few pump cruxes high above the hard moves. FA: Ryan Sklenica, 2022 | Bare Rock | |||
34 | The Line of Least Friction
Bouldery start on tiny slopers and a shallow hueco. Once over the lip do Friction Addictions Set: Paul Creswell, 2011 FA: Sam Bowman, 12 Jul 2015 | 20m, 12 | Mt Coolum | ||
Boulder | |||||

V11 | Lock Groove
Sit start. Make a couple of moves up as for the V10 before breaking left, topping into the big water jug hueco/ pot plant. | Bungonia Gorge | |||
V11 | ★★★ A Name and a Number
Stand start on distinct sidepull, executing a powerful set of moves to a show-stopping long move. How it ends was anybody's guess ... until visiting Canadian Simon Parton showed everyone how it's done in 2016 in the inaugural Passchendaele V1 Bouldering Festival.

V11 | ★★ Rodeo Clown
Start as for Persistence climbing this for about 2m before breaking off via an obvious perfect deep 2 finger pocket heading straight out to the cave entrance via some good holds. Then make a huge span move between 2 good holds heading right. Release the span via the Rodeo move and finish matched on the starting rail of Major Lightweight on the outside of the cave. Easier if you are taller. FA: R. Hofmann, 17 Jul 2017 | Wedderburn Cave | |||
V11/12 | ★★★ The Katana
Start on pinchy block to a hard sloper traverse into underclings and wild cross-throughs to crimps up high. Hard. Stand start at the undercling is V9. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjrW3GyEhlU A foot at the start has broken since the FA making the start harder... the full opening sequence has been done post break now - possibly V12 for the full line post break FA: Clinton Martinengo, 30 Oct 2016 | 4m | Midgegoroo National Park | ||
V11 | ★ The Great Houdini
Start on the right of Major Lightweight on a left hand side pull and right hand edge. Big move to the pocked with the left hand, right hand crimp intermediate then to the gnarly 2 finger pocket, hand foot match the left and hold tight to pull over the bulge to small edge via sloper. Top out "RIGHT" via slopers and edges. Gymnastic and Powerful. FA: R. Hofmann, 25 Jul 2018 | Wedderburn Cave | |||

V11 | ★★★ Kryptonite
3m of climbing on inward facing crimps on a steep face lead to a scary 5m slab. Shouldery, hard. Fragile holds. https://youtu.be/Ky45gPjB-pM Unfortunately since the FA the final crimp of the crux (left hand gaston at the lip) appears to have been chipped using an angle grinder to make it a better hold.
