17 Bovenplaats

A long route, by Jan Smuts Crag standards. Either abseil in (apparently there's a bolt) or scramble down about 30m to the right (if looking out from the top of the route).

History: Bovenplaats was the name of Jan Smuts’ father’s farm when he was born.

Line of bolts left of Bovenplaats.

Interesting, slightly overhanging climbing.

The first bolt may be a tricky/committing clip for shorter climbers.

21 Omicron

Easy climbing to where the wall becomes overhanging. Gain the ledge below the roof, before climbing the crack in the open-book/vague chimney.

Route name, grade and FA details from Hallam Payne's Winston Park guide.
