Up seam right of 'Head Injuries' and up arete to join 'Surface Paradise'. A few weird moves to a sloping ledge above the 3rd Ubolt. The fin on the left side of the ledge is on. Stay on the right side of the arete above to join SP at the break.. PA: Mike Law, 2011 | 20m | |||

24 | ★★ Jaded Cravings
RB's to lower off up right arete of wide crack (22 if you go into it for a move). Rebolted 2006 PA: Dave Barnes, 1990 | 16m | |||
26 | ★★ Success is the Enemy
LH variant of ‘Failure is your Friend’ Interesting boulder finisish. Equip: Jason Lammers, 2000 PA: nathanual hebbard, 28 Ag 2021 | 22m | |||
22 | ★★★ Failure is your Friend
Up JC to 2nd bolt, vere right, tricky moves to gain break. Launch out to the headwall above and take the right line of RBs to top. PA: Jason Lammers, 2011 | 20m | |||
29 | ★★★ Tiger Style
Start up 6m left of Hercules to cave and step right onto face and rising traverse into Anticoagulant, finish at these anchors for 27. Finish up Bordella de Merde for the real deal. Long draws help with rope drag. PA: nathanual hebbard, 29 Ag 2021 | 28m, 13 | |||
25 | ★★★ Anticoagulant Direct Finish
PA: mikl, 1990 | 8m | |||
24 | ★ Anticoagulant
Desperate! Retro bolted 2011 PA: Graham Fairbairn, 1989 | 15m | |||
27 | ★ Bordella de Merde
A DF to expectorant or start up anticoagulant, the pinch out right is on (rebolted 2008) PA: Richard Sonnerdale, 2011 | 8m, 3 | |||

Start up corner as for 'Anticoagulant' and 'Hercules' then up through caves to tenuous finish on line of bolts a meter left of 'Hercules'. PA: Mike Law, 2011 | 15m, 4 | |||
22 | ★★ Hercules
Start: 10m left of 'The Cathedral' Cave, up easy corner and step right into thin line. Continue straight up past some fantasic climbing to lower off. Rebolted 2006, 4 RB and Double RB Lower Off. PA: Kent Heffernan, 1989 | 15m | |||
23 | ★★★ Hercules Extension
Was always hard for 23 for a move, then easy slabbing to the top. Pre-clipping the anchor with a sling loses 2 grades, and all your self-respect. From the double RB's on 'Hercules', blast up, 2 RB's to double RB lower off (rebolted 2008) PA: Mike Law, 1990 | 22m | |||
23 | ★★ Imogen
Sustained and way cool. The rounded arete just left of the Cathedral Cave. Do not stem up the wide corner ('Imogen Easy (but Scary) Start', grade 21); climb just left of the first two bolts (grade 23). If you stickclip, then better to clip the second bolt directly as the first one offers little protection. PA: Jason Lammers, 2008 | 15m, 7 | |||
25 | ★★ Imogenation | 22m, 11 | |||
21 | ★★ Imogen Easy (but Scary) Start
Stem up the wide crack to reach the third bolt of 'Imogen'. Stick-clip second bolt to keep you from hitting the ground if you fall, but it still may be an awkward swing. The original bolts for this route were to the right and better protected this version. It was only when these bolts were chopped and moved left did it become dangerous (and less popular) | 15m, 7 | |||
21 | ★★ Fat Crack
Streno thrash, great fun. Essential before a trip to Frog Buttress or Yosemite.The crux section had previously been done as part of The Shute. Medium wires, finger to hand cams and a fist cam above the thread and one for the top chimney. PA: mikl law, 2013 | 22m | |||
15 | ★ Axe Grinder
A route on its own and the final meters of 'The Shute'. Probally a bit of a pain to get to. Rap in from trees on top of cliff and climb out. " I would not trust the old rusty carrots for the hanging belay, but there are some new RBs you could setup a hanging belay with some slings of different sizes. " 3 RB to Double RB lower off. Nice and airy up there. PA: Dave Barnes, 1989 | 8m | |||
20 | ★ Bundy's been bolting
Start just left of the Cathedral cave. Only 20, if you dont do the last move. Direct extension is closed project. PA: Lord Bundy, 2007 | 15m, 6 | |||
23 | ★★ The Shute
Up BBB, then stem up the crack and right into AG. A committing adventure PA: Cameron Taylor, 2000 | 25m | |||
BBB - Direct Finish - CLOSED PROJECT - and still closed !
The obvious extension to BBB that now has an extra bolt and strangely enough it now seems do-able. CLOSED PROJECT PA: 2000 Equip: Jason Lammers, 2013 | 25m | ||||
24 | Tallado ★★ Bora
Pumpy pumpy pumpy. Up right side of cave and traverse lip then up groove and wall to top. PA: Mike Law, 2011 | 25m | |||
17 | ★★★ Wacky Tabacci
If you like this sort of thing, this is the sort of thing you'll like. A classic with exposed climbing on good holds with 'sporting' bolting, but there are a few chimney moves so long pants recommended. The apparent grade depends a lot on when you started climbing: if you started in the 60s it's be 10; 70s = 13, 80s = 14. This century somewhere between 16 and 20. The obvious left leaning chimney to the right of The Cathedral cave. Up then use jugs on right arete. Above chockstone/roof thing, step around left arete and up to lower off. Technically easy but pretty out there, better to be overgraded than a sandbag I suppose.... PA: Graham Fairbairn, 1989 | 25m, 8 | |||
20 | ★★ Retro Crack
The bolted crack line 5m R of Wacky Tabacki. Mostly laybacking and climbing the left arete but a jamb or two may be needed. Has been lead on large natural gear if you don't like Ubolts PA: Mike Law, 2011 | 25m, 8 | |||
18 | ★★ Stainless Mystery
Start up GOOT or 'Vitez' (trad) and traverse left in break at 10m then finish up Retro Crack (rings). PA: Hill's Alien visitation crew from TJF, 2000 | 30m | |||
20 | ★★ Get Out of Town
Start on face 1m right of Retro Crack. Hard off the ground to RB and trad up to pea pod. Up a bit then take the left-hand flake past 2 rings to a lower-off. PA: Kent Heffernan, 1989 | 25m, 3 | |||
19 | ★★ Vitez
Pleasant crack to pea-pod and continue straight up the wide crack above past 3 stainless carrots. | 25m | |||
21 | ★★ Medieval Remedies
Another wall finish to the 2 cracks, one very funky move... Start up Vitez or GOOT to pod, right a move to Inchworm Groove anchor then climb the wall a metre R of wide crack (Vitez DF) past 3 RBs to single U lower off. PA: Ben Williams, 2015 | 25m, 4 | |||
18 | ★ Vitez Right Finish
Start in the corner crack 1 m Right of Get out of Town. Follow this up and over a bulge to the pea pod. Move right and clip the chain on IG then right again (past Medieval Remedies) to face climb past RBs to top off cliff and double RB lower off. According to the 1991 Rock Magzine guidebook to Sydney - this was actually the original finish to Get Out of Town! PA: P. Farkas, 1989 | 25m | |||
18 | ★★ Black Knight of 'Ni'
Start as for Vitez. Follow this up to pea pod, at the left hand flake bust out right above Inchworm Groove anchors and take the two ringbolts above (extend last piece and the runners along traverse). Finish up the headwall dihedral on small gear to take the anchors above and right at the top of the cliff (Top of Nats Mega Proj). Fun mix of crack, slab and face climbing. PA: David Pasqualino, Mayo 2021 | 25m, 2 | |||
27 | ★★ Inchworm Groove
This one is for the hard nuts,it was once the hardest trad line in shire, and possibly NSW. Start: Below the thin seam, tenuous moves up the groove to lower off chain at half height or easily to top up anything nearby. Take small gear. PA: Mike Law, 1986 | 8m | |||
mega proj
closed project up thin layback seam/crack to slab PA: Equip: nathanual hebbard | 25m, 9 | ||||
23 | ★★ Creature Of The Knight
Start as for CF and break left once you establish yourself on the top slab. Finish at anchor to the right of the corner crack above obvious feature (.4 can dilute the finish). PA: nathanual hebbard, 2 Ag 2021 | 27m, 8 | |||
23 | ★★ Creature Feature
As for OA until for the 1st section. Then clip RB on left and move to the left up the thin slab past 3 new RB to lower offs. Rebolted 2006 PA: Graham Fairbairn, 1989 | 20m, 7 | |||
21 | ★★ Gutterfingers
Excellent climbing finishing in strange laybacking up a runnel. Once again, almost a sport climb if you carry a sling for the big jug above the second bolt on OA. As for OA for 10m (past 2 RBs and a sling runner). Then move left (bolt) and straight up the thin slab above, move left to lower off. PA: Vanessa Peterson, 2011 | 20m, 7 | |||
17 | ★★ Ozone Action
Sydney classic at the grade! A great example of a mixed route, requiring quite a bit of trad. Start on right side of main wall at the right leading groove/flake feature with very high first bolt (stick-clip it). Up the groove (2 RBs), sling the top of the feature and take a well earned rest. Finish up a exposed flake crack on left side of arete (cams and wires) then one final RB to lower-offs. PA: Graham Fairbairn, 1989 | 20m, 3 | |||
14 | ★ Jack and the Beanstalk

PA: Kent Heffernan, 1989 | 8m | |||
6 | Tarmac Traverse
The access pitch for the next 5 climbs. Start from bunch of small trees. The obvious low angle slab leading left across the middle of the wall to a rap chain. | 10m | |||
14 | ★ Shoot That Dog
The tricky looking Chimney PA: Kent Heffernan, 1989 | 10m | |||
21 | ★ Mushroom Mantle

24 | ★★ Moss Ghyll Grooves
20m right of G, starting below cracks at left edge of steep wall. Up the cracks heading slightly left at the top to anchor. Looks easy... PA: Mike Law, 1990 | 10m, 6 | |||
25 | ★ Take me to the Tropics
start as for Moss Ghyll. Can get dirty. Up MGG then traverse right and up. Good crux move PA: Cam Taylor, 2008 | 11m, 6 | |||
25 | ★★★ In the Groove

25 | ★ Spite
Just past the little creek that flows down the face is the Trauma Wall. Spite - Just right of the creek. A desperate granite slab test piece ( I know that the topo says it's 23). Clean before climbing, stickclip first Ubolt. Stick clip high Ubolt and go PA: Mike Law, 1990 | 15m, 4 | |||
20 | ★★ Mr Squiggle
8m right of the creek and 5m right of Spite. Up the fun and increasingly delicate groove and crack. Left a wee bit at the top before moving right to anchors. PAL: Mike Law, 1990 | 15m, 5 | |||
21 | ★★ Ms Pat
4m right of MS. Up the delicate slab to anchors on block. In the 80s it had 3 less grades and 2 less bolts! PA: Mike Law, 1989 | 15m, 4 | |||
18 | ★ Monopoly
Start: 5m right of Ms Pat. Climb up onto the hollow sounding flake past a bolt then the slab above using friction smearing: "nose over toes, rubber on the rock, stand up straight". If you're leaning over clutching at crystals or desperately hauling with your hands you're making it harder than it is. PA: Michael Combley & Anrew Rigden, 2013 | 10m, 3 | |||
17 | Trivial Pursuit
Start 2 metres right of Monopoly: Climb into the scoop and comfortably clip the RB. Friction up the slab to reach sloping holds, continue smearing upwards and mantle shelf onto the holds. Stand up and clip the next RB. Move left to lower off Monopoly Both Monopoly & Trivial Pursuit are both excellent practise pieces for the harder slab climbs to the left. 10 metres to the right of these climbs is a pathway that descends to Angels Buttress and also another pathway upwards that joins the Cathedral descent path. To reach the Cathedral descent path climb upwards 10 metres right of Trivial Pursuit and follow the yellow and white insulation tape bands to reach the main access path PA: Michael Combley & Andrew Rigden, 2013 | 10m, 3 | |||
18 | ★ Boot Flake
Fun layback. Named after the hole at the base where I lost a brand new Miura. Start 20m R of Trivial Pursuit and 1m left of 'Oh the Humidity" at wide crack. PA: mikl, 2013 | 6m, 2 | |||
16 | ★ Oh the Humidity
Nice thin crack. Start about 12m uphill from Wire Brush and Dettol. Up crack to 2 ring lower-off. PA: Stu Dobster, 2012 | 6m | |||
20 | ★★ Wire Brush and Dettol
About 40m right of MP is a giant flake leaning against the cliff, forming an overhung wide layback corner. Undercling the wide crack then walk left 4m and up the wall to anchor. Careful belaying is needed to keep you off the ledeg on the bouldery crux (I'd pull up on the bolt above the ledge to clip the higher one, or even bring the second up to the big ledge to belay. Use a screwgate on the bolt. It was originally graded 18 and had two 70's toproping bolts in it, judging by the number of loose flakes removed on the top wall, I don't think it had been climbed.. PA: Mike Law, 2011 | 18m, 5 | |||
26 | Murphy's Law
Short arete right of WB&D. Energetic starting moves with a delicate finish. PA: Jackson O'Grady, 8 Oct 2021 | 8m, 2 | |||

17 | Bye Forever
Just like goodbyes, not all that pleasant. Shallow flaring double crack system into a chimney top. FA used a #7 as first piece, a #6 would go one move higher. Tree anchor. PA: Jake Delaney & Tom Bes, 10 Jul 2023 | 19m | |||
21 | ★★ Nutter in a Gutter
Funky groove and neat face climbing. Up crack 8 m R of Buffalo Bum to ledge, step R 1.5m and up wall to jugs then left to crack PA: Gareth Downey, 2013 | 15m | |||
20 | ★★ Wench in a Trench
Wide crack 8m right of Buffalo Bum Past 2 RBs, then nice through bulge at top to loweroffs. Nuts and cams for top section; you can also get some gear in the break before the 2nd bolt. PA: Stu Dobbie & Enmoore Lin, 2011 | 18m, 2 | |||
24 | ★★ Boffin in a Coffin
Epic offwidth through roof 8m right of Wench. Offffffwidth into sport climbing crux on wall. PA: Mike Law, 2011 | 12m, 4 | |||
22 | ★ Tweedlebum
Start 10m R of Boffin in a Coffin. Up to roof and up. Wide. PA: mikl, 2011 | 10m | |||
16 | ★ Chimney sweep punters
Up the thin crack feature on small gear, avoid bridging across to face on left. Once ledge is gained move left into squeeze chimney with more small gear in the back. Move up and right back into crack on face and top out. Walk off or abseil off tree. PA: Tom Bes, 8 Jul 2021 | 10m | |||
21 | Country Club Punters
The last crack on the wall, a few metres further from Tweedlebum, thin cracks up bulge to ledge and then mantle (crux). Keep the ledgefall potential in mind. (If you have to remove the plant from the top crack you're not strong enough.) PAL: Anton Korsun Equip: Tom Bes | 10m | |||
6 | ★ Gumboot Ridge
Easiest sport route in town? A good beginner's route. Walk down and R 10m from Wire Brush and Dettol, then down the Right side of a boulder. Walk climb the ridge. PA: mikl, 2013 | 12m, 3 | |||
12 | ★ Plimsole Line
Another easy beginner's slab climb up the slab right of Gumboot Ridge: Start at the lowest point of the slab and follow the line of RB's trending left to the single RB belay at the top. PA: Michael Combley & Andrew Rigden (Solo), 2013 | 15m, 3 |
