Access: Access to Gulp Road Crags ( Supa fun Happy + Rave Cave)

As of July 2023, Access to this cliff line is gated just 2.4km from the carpark of the crag. Which is where the land transfers from the state forest to Morten National Park.

If a local climber would be invested in working on access to this area, please get in touch with me. It would be a shame to lose access to a plethora of excellent rock when all we need to do is communicate effectively with the land manager of Morten National Park.

The State Forest however, has an excellent free campground with toilets which would be a 10 minutes drive from the crag carpark if the gate was unlocked.

Descrição

Walk beyond SFH for two minutes passing a large stalagpoo

Questões de acesso herdado de Wingello

In 2013 National Parks erected a locked gate 200m from the fire fighters memorial and placed several very large boulders on the road at the entrance of the memorial. Park in the designated car park to avoid blocking the gate or being blocked in by other users.

From Sydney: Wingello is about 1 hour from the M7/M5 intersection and the crag itself is about 20 minutes out of Wingello (depending on your car). Wingello is best reached (from Sydney) by busting straight down the Hume Hwy to the turn off just after the Paddy’s River bridge. You can also go through Bundanoon but its probably a bit slower. From Macca’s on the Freeway its 11.5km to the Wingello turn off, and another 8km from there to the Wingello Railway Crossing. Reset your speedo on the railway line or at the shop .

From Canberra:

Reset Speedo at NSW Border on Federal Highway. The BP at Marulan is 110kms or 1hr drive. Wingello turn off is 124.7km or 1hr 10 mins. The railway crossing at Wingello is 131.6km or 1 hr 15mins.

Acesso

Continue past SPH wall, under big cave past the "Big Poo" feature. The first climbs are about 30m past this...or if starting day here, take western access gully route and walk back towards SFH...its about 100m from base of gully.
