Open Project
Open project - probably 30/31 in grade. The bolted route on the impressive overhanging arête. Tracciata: Daniel Krippner | 30m, 9 | ||||
22 | ★ Not Here to F*** Spiders
A moderately technical first crux leads to a narrow bombay chimney. Jam a #4 or #5 camalot over your head and then squeeze, wiggle,grind and grunt your way through an overhanging off-width to a well-deserved rest. Make sure you keep a few medium cams for the top section and mind your rope doesn't get stuck in a groove as you descend. Trad: Double rack to #3 plus a #4 or #5. FFA: Edwin Sheppard, Apr 2016 | 30m | |||
19 | ★★ Are We Tramping Yet?
Start up the slabs broken by 2 small overhangs (cruxes). Then up the short headwall to a chain belay on Lover's ledge. This was the first route at Tairua and was climbed ground up on the first reccie to the crag. It has since been bolted in order to create a friendly access route.

“Peace be upon you”. Cliff: I re-named this climb following the Christchurch Terrorist attack. It is probably the best climb I have helped put up and is in a very peaceful and beautiful part of NZ, a fitting tribute to all those Kiwis and visitors that lost their lives. As with all climbing at Tairua, this route is the combination of many climbers' efforts, thanks to you all, we are one, Kia Kaha.
Descent: Abseil back down the route. Clip the chain on the top bolt on the 5th pitch and abseil off the left-hand side of the 3rd pitch ledge. You will also need two ropes to abseil off the Living Room ledge. Alternatively abseil down the line of Daylight Dilemma. FA: Gregor Kolbe, Robert Scott, Edwin Sheppard & Max Hutchinson FFA: Cliff Ellery & Jess Dobson, Mar 2019 | 160m, 7 | |||
22 | ★★ Dirty Hairy Frenchmen
2nd tier. Starts from the anchors at the top of Not here to F*** Spiders (far right side of Lover's Ledge). Rad moves out right lead to a stiff crux sequence into a cave. Top out on the enormous Living Room Ledge. 7 Bolts. NOTE: Falling off the crux of this route can leave you hanging in space. Make sure you know how to ascend a rope! Descent: Either rap back down route (difficult), or climb up onto the Alien Head and rap off the Space Ape anchor back to Lover's Ledge. Alternatively it is a 50m rap to the ground from the Living Room Ledge. Tracciata: Romain Albert FFA: Max Hutchinson & Edwin Sheppard, Feb 2017 | 20m, 6 | |||
25 | Farcical Aquatic Ceremony
You will need a very special set of skills for this route. Suitable for caver/crack climber hybrids that like running it out on gear. This is a roof crack that is usually running with water but occasionally dries out in summer. Extreme quantities of dirt add to the experience. If it is ever cleaned it might lose a grade or two. Enjoy! FA: Edwin Sheppard & Max Hutchinson, Feb 2017 FFA: Edwin Sheppard, Feb 2019 | 20m | |||
26/27 | Boulderer's Day Off
Straight up from the anchors at the top of Are We Tramping Yet? to an anchor in the middle of Space Ape. FA: Edwin Sheppard, Feb 2019 | 12m, 4 | |||
24 | ★★★ Space Ape
Absolutely wild! Start at the same bolt as Coitus Interruptus but then trend right up the delicate slab before traversing right over ledges to the steeply overhung alien feature. Take a deep breath before launching up the inside of this outrageous feature. Clip the green thread before you mantle out. DBC belay. Note: There is an anchor on the ledge in the middle of the route, this is the top of Boulderer's Day Off. You can stop here to split the route into 2 pitches. FFA: Edwin Sheppard, Nov 2017 | 22m, 12 | |||
25 | ★★ Feral Bush Lawyer
The pitch starting from the alien head. Great climbing on perfect rock. Climb Space Ape or Dirty Hairy Frenchmen to access. FA: Edwin Sheppard, Apr 2017 | 12m, 6 | |||

This is the Tairua classic! Pitch 1 (19) – Are we Tramping Pitch 2 (22) 20m Climb easy honeycombed rock to the 2nd bolt,then power through the crux which consists of a series of good underclings with long reaches to small slopey edges. Pitch 3 (18) 20m Delightful stemming up the steep corner to the large chickenhead visible from below. Can be done as one long pitch or two short pitches at 22/18. Pitch 4 (26)15m. Up thru scoop and then consistently hard moves to the anchor. Pitch 5 (21) 30m . Nice moves on good rock to bushy ledge. Pitch 6 (16) 30m Up slabby ground to rap station just below bushline. Pitch 1 to 3 Greg Kolbe; Edwin Sheppard Nov 2017 Pitch 4 to 6 Edwin Sheppard, Max Nov 2020 FFA: Gregor Kolbe & Edwin Sheppard, Nov 2017 FA: Edwin Sheppard & Max, Nov 2020 | 140m, 6, 16 | |||

Up the steep bolted line starting a few metres to the right of Jam. Staunch climbing with a sting in the tail. FA: Max Huchinson, Feb 2019 | 20m, 11 | |||
22 | Jam
Cranky moves off the deck to a couple of okay placements, then straight up the steep groove (crux). It really helps if you know how to jam! Stay right after the ledge and cruise up the wide crack toward the belay on the right. Rack: Double rack of cams to #3, one #4 and #5.

18 | ★★ Home is Calling
Easier finish to Home Again. Traverse up and right before Home Again's final steep section to the first pitch's anchor of Kapowai Calling. FA: Edwin Sheppard, Feb 2018 | 20m, 10 | |||
21 | ★★ Home Again
Starts on the block just left of Kapowai Calling, on the edge of the large gully that splits the face. Nice grade 17/18 moves up to the crux up the small crack at the top. Generously bolted to make for a comfortable lead. 11 bolts. Tracciata: Dave Spooner & Edwin Sheppard FFA: Dave Spooner, Dic 2017 | 20m, 11 | |||
23 | Chockaholic
Start as for Home Again, before splitting off at half height following crack trending up and left. At the chocked block bust out left to flake feature before moving up to another chock (novel #4 camalot placement here). Sustained climbing follows with just enough gear to keep you going before joining Kapowai Calling at the bolt at the end of its second pitch. Rack: wires, full set of cams to #4, doubles #0.3-1. Save the #0.75s to place after each chock. Note: FA was on trad before Home Again was bolted. FA: Sam Waetford, Dic 2017 | 30m, 1 | |||

The best route at Tairua? Follows a giant crack/chimney up the left side of the large central gully which splits the buttress. The first two and a half pitches were climbed ground-up on trad, but there is now a couple of bolts at the crux on the first pitch. Every pitch of this route is worth doing in its own right... no boring bits! Note the hardest moves (3rd pitch) are on bolts. All anchors are bolted.
Rack: Doubles to #4, one #5 or #6. Descent: Great rap line - all pitches are less than 30m so it can be done with a single 60m rope. Every rap leads you directly down to the previous belay, except for the first anchor which is slightly right of the rap line but is easy to swing across to. Tracciata: Edwin Sheppard, Greg Kolbe, Matt Holcroft, Jono Dawson & Alex Kiechle-Cornish FA: Edwin Sheppard & Greg Kolbe, Mar 2015 FFA: Edwin Sheppard & Dave Spooner, Dic 2017 | 120m, 5, 21 | |||
24 | ★★ Five Legged Goat
A wildly overhanging, left-leaning hand crack! Rope stretcher - use a 70m rope or tie knots in your 60m. Located at the far left-hand side of the crag, up the access ramp with a white fixed rope. Start up the block just left of the main crack, placing a good cam off the ground to protect the start moves. Span across to the main crack and then blast upwards. The crux is hand jams. Rack: Single rack of wires and small cams, double rack of cams from #0.4 -#3,one #4. Hexes work great too! Make sure you keep a #.5 and a #.75 camalot for the top section where the gear options get a bit limited. FA: Edwin Sheppard, Apr 2018 | 30m | |||

More fixed ropes lead up and left from 'Five Legged Goat'. 'El pollo loco' starts on a small ledge with two chains.
Descent: A 60m rope will suffice. There is a rappel anchor at the right end of the P1 traverse. ~25 more meters from here brings you back to the access track. FA: Cliff Ellery, Jess Dobson & Racheal Mayne, Nov 2019 | 100m, 3, 36 | |||
