Two small rock bands on the side of a cliff on the walk-in into the Wheal Watkins Mine. The upper cliff has a really nice view of the city.
Located along the walk-in into the Wheal Watkins Mine. The area consists of a lower cliff and an upper cliff. The rock is of average Adelaide rock so climb with caution. Actual Route names and descriptions to come.
Not known. There are no signs prohibiting climbing in the area. Of course, don't climb on the mine site itself. Stick to the designated climbing area.
Park in the parking area at the end of Allandale Avenue. This is the start of the walking trail to the Mine. Follow the walking trail taking the left path. Once you get to the boulders (approx 2mins) you can either take a dodgy scramble up or follow the path another 5-6mins until you are above the upper cave. The walk off the path down an easy hill to the upper cave.
This area is located on a revegetation site known as "Gully Reserve". The land is managed by the Burnside City Council as well as Bush for Life volunteers. Please follow these rules so that we can take care of this site and make a positive example of climbers.
Don't trample any plants. Plantings and valuable remnant veg are often (but not always) marked with bamboo stakes or blue pin tags.
Don't remove plant matter or soil from the rock. There are rare native plants such as ferns that grow in/on the rocks here.
Avoid causing erosion. The soil at Gully is unforunately very soft and prone to erosion. Tread carefully when scrambling up or down the hillside.
