Technically Birrabang Walls are the cliffs opposite Dalpura Head on other side of Birrabang creek. Most routes described here are someways further south.
Restricciones
Please refrain from leaving Cairns or other markers. Retreat would be an intense affair via Burrakorain Flat then up to Mt Vic Falls not before hours of Lawyer Vines followed by Permian sediment choss-a-lanches so take care. (intrepid hikers feel free to update with better bail out options)

A 1.5 hr trudge , mostly untracked though small trails can be picked up between the saddles. Walk 20 minutes as for Yileen canyon access then as that trail descends down and left break trail right over ironstone boulders (untracked) and utilise the two saddles due west that are apparent on topo map. It is best to employ a topographic map and a compass for this purpose. After first saddle take note of termite mound just shy of the top of ridge as this is a useful tool to indicate saddle apon return. Take a left on ridge after the second saddle (at comparatively large scribbly-gum trees) and weave through the heath and mallee staying ontop of ridge until a very large low rounded hill appears on the valleys edge down and right. meander along the top of this (slightly to the west) avoiding any side gullys until approx. 20m from edge. find a way down the North edge keeping behind a few outcrops until the rap anchor for Pitch 4 of Roslyns , located near a flat platform at edge , around the front of the pagoda. Or continue hiking down then back around left onto large ledge for the "F.I.R' rap or continue even further down to the large rock platform beside small canyon for rap point of 'Gut Feelin'. For this abseil, when on large platform look down and left for rap chain above large crack. Shimmy down slopey scoop on left of platform to grassy ledge and rap. Climbing with shoes helps on "gut feelin" as route tops out someways back up the hill.

Although sport climbing is well entrenched as the most popular form of Blueys climbing, mixed-climbing on gear and bolts has generally been the rule over the long term. Please try to use available natural gear where possible, and do not bolt cracks or potential trad climbs. If you do the bolts may be removed.
Because of the softness of Blue Mountains sandstone, bolting should only be done by those with a solid knowledge of glue-in equipping. A recent fatality serves as a reminder that this is not an area to experiment with bolting.
If you do need to top rope, please do it through your own gear as the wear on the anchors is both difficult and expensive to maintain.
At many Blue Mountains crags, the somewhat close spacing of routes and prolific horizontal featuring means that it is easy to envisage literally hundreds of trivial linkups. By all means climb these to your hearts content but, unless it is an exceptional case due to some significant objective merit, please generally refrain from writing up linkups. A proliferation of descriptions of trivial linkups would only clutter up the guide and add confusion and will generally not add value to your fellow climbers. (If you still can't resist, consider adding a brief note to the parent route description, rather than cluttering up the guide with a whole new route entry).
If you have benefited from climbing infrastructure in NSW, please consider making a donation towards maintenance costs. The Sydney Rockclimbing Club Rebolting Fund finances the replacement of old bolts on existing climbs and the maintenance of other hardware such as fixed ropes and anchors. The SRC purchases hardware, such as bolts and glue, and distributes them to volunteer rebolters across the state of New South Wales. For more information, including donation details, visit https://sydneyrockies.org.au/rebolting/
It would be appreciated if brushing of holds and minimisation/removal of tick marks becomes part of your climbing routine. Consider bringing a water squirt bottle and mop-up rag to better remove chalk. Only use soft (hair/nylon) bristled brushes, never steel brushes.
The removal of vegetation - both from the cliff bases and the climbs - is not seen as beneficial to aesthetics of the environment nor to our access to it.
Remember, to maintain access our best approach is to 'Respect Native Habitat, Tread Softly and Leave No Trace'. Do not cut flora and keep any tracks and infrastructure as minimal as possible or risk possible closures.
