King Penguin cliff (eastern cliff, also faces east) The cliff is not easy to see. While you can scramble to the bottom at low tide from the southern end, this is not recommended due to sudden and unexpected king waves. It’s much better to rap in and climb out. As the cliff is 20m high, you can rap on one end and lead back up on the other end, or take two ropes. There are two sections split by a small gully. To rap for the routes King Penguin to Sea Monkey: a mix of trad and bolts. Routes on the other side of the gully need bolt plates and long slings as they’re spaced about 1.5-2m apart along the top of the cliff. Routes are described left to right.
From the King Walrus cliff, To get to the eastern cliff (King Penguin cliff) walk east for a few mins across the low angled slabs.
Or you can continue along the Bibulman track from the top of the hill as far east as the track takes you in this area, then head through some small shrubs and slabs to the top of the cliff. No more than a couple of minutes from the car in total. Look on google earth if you are confused.
Mixed climbing. Bolts where needed. Trad where needed. Have fun !
Closed projects exist. If these are not listed in the guide they are closed. All closed projects have bolts.
There is plenty of scope for bouldering and some new routes. There is oodles of scope for falling into the sea and/or being washed away. So be sensible where you walk, stand, sleep. especially in big seas.
Fixed protection (bolts) should be used at your own risk.
