Bowentown Heads Rock climbing 10 routes in crag

Bowentown is a small town on the end of the peninsula, approx. 5kms south of Waihi Beach and about 15 minutes from Waihi. Once you reach Bowentown, go straight through the roundabout onto Seaforth Rd and continue down that until you reach the Bowentown Beach Holiday Park. Turn left onto Seaforth Rd, drive to the end and park in the car park. There is a boardwalk that will take you down to the beach and from there, turn right and it’s a short walk to the cliffs. Easily accessible at low tide but can be quite tricky if it’s high tide. You can still reach the cliffs at high tide but you’ll just need to do a bit of scrambling over the first couple of small boulders. The climbs themselves are far enough back from the ocean for the belayer and climber to not be affected by the waves.
