Old school area. Lots of half finished bolted routes, scary mixed shenanigans, and the occasional classic looking trad line. Also home to Grace Gully and the fun sport routes there.

This is an interesting little area originally developed by Chris Jones who put up the classic 'Hari Kari' in 1999. It was rediscovered 5 years later by Lee Cossey who immediatly saw the line that came to be 'Cirque de Soleil'. All the routes here share the same style of climbing that being entirly traditionaly protected. There is room for a few more routes, some have already been attempted ground-up and are cosidered established trad projects, all are obviously open. Before bolting new lines here consider whether it may have already been traditionally concieved.

Classic grit style rock, climbing and protection. This has probably only seen one day of action since the first ascent, on this day however the fall from the crux was tested a few times, all walked away happy. A photograph of the FA was published claiming it to be in 'Western Australia', had it been correct and described it as being in the Blue Mountains, this route would have surely seen more attention.

Start part way down the steep gully. Below the obvious shallow slopey layaway. Up to break and into the layaway, yes you have to leave that good foot hold.

This was apparently climbed by Chris Jones in 1999. Like the other routes here it is all trad the difference being the rock is of slightly lesser quality, worthwhile all the same.

Start as for 'Cirque de Soleil' but climb straight up arete all the way. It may be possible to step onto the route a little higher up.

Headpointing comes to the mountains. First ascent was done using toprope rehearsal in order to clean and find the line. A ground-up ascent is possible just committing.

Start on arete at base off steep gully and at the beginning of the left leading diagonal break.

Good quality trad climbing. Two very different pitches. A ground up ascent would be very possible and memorable but it could be worth checking how mossy the upper half is before committing.

To access this route abseil 45m off a tree anchor on the southern arete to the base of the cliff. Start at the crack in the obvious corner/groove just left of arete.

1. 33m (24) Climb initial corner stepping right onto arete a few meters up. Onto ledge (very thin gear) followed by tricky moves to gain good jams and jugs. Follow jugs up and to the right away from the hollow arete. Go straight up the wall following the wear steak, initially using the flake to the right and placing gear (sometimes thin) in horizontals. Belay on obvious ledge.

2. 12m (23) Exciting little headwall. Climb 5m off the belay to the only gear on the pitch, proceed on to and over rooflet to some slopey moves. If you are unsure of your ability it may be worth scoping and chalking this bit on the way down.

Short little buttress with old bolts down right of the tourist lookout.

Start at left edge of short orange wall. Traverse in from left to black streak, then up past 2 bolts.

Diagonal crack just Left of Descent Chimney. Climb to crack, then to horizontal break. Traverse left to arete, and then up (2 bolts on left side). DBB at top.

1m Right of Vitae. Climb crack then steep wall past 3 bolts.

Diagonal crack to top. A couple of face moves to avoid shrubbery.

Climb the Right arete of the orange wall past 2 bolts to BB at top.

Right of Time, Life, Books on left arete of the small buttress. Hard start, then climb right side of the arete to the top past 2 bolts. Bring wires and medium cams.

2m right of Toot Beep. Climb up to break, then up past 1 bolt. The tree is reportedly "off route". Bring a medium cam for break.

Start at arete Right of Steve Steps Out. Behind tree to break, then up ramps on arete. Bring a large cam for break.

Varied crack size and style to keep things interesting the whole way up. Start by traversing out along the nice foot rail from the tree(Other starts may be possible)and then follow the crack to glory.It will give you back all your requited crack love.

Approach: (5 minute approach) Before the rocky outcrop of sunset rock, take the gully to the left (south east) and head down. Following the left hand wall and take the highest goat track, continuing for approximately 60m. The climb starts at a new gully, just before it drops steeply. It is advisable for the belayer to anchor into the tree (and a possible big cam in the big block). You can belay of a tree at the top and walk off towards sunset rock but please be mindful of the houses close by.

Despite relatively easy access this west facing wall has remained unloved. Bolts are original carrots from the 80s - take care.

Far right route on the wall. Start near right corner system. Past 3 bolts to ledge, then up faint line past more bolts to top. Bring large cams for upper section.

Start at black streak (that seeps) 3m left of I'm a Braddlefish. Up past 3 bolts to crux, then to break. Up through roof and steep wall past 3 more bolts.

4m Left of The Black Streak. Up past 2 bolts and range of gear to ledge. Left off ledge and through roof, then up past flakes to top via 7 bolts.

2m Left of To Know a Thief.

P1 (20m) - Up past Bolt to ledge and BB.

P2 (10m) - Up through roof and wall, then left and up to top.

North facing wall tucked around left of the main wall - starting on a higher ledge. Easy climbing to middle ledge passing 1 bolt, through overlap & follow rings up face above to double bolt anchor.

The Blue Mountains are a World Heritage listed area. The Grose Valley, the cliffs around Katoomba and much of the Narrow Neck peninsula are part of the Blue Mountains National Park which is managed by the NPWS. The Western Escarpment - where most of the climbing is - is Crown Land managed by the BMCC. While the NPWS Plan of Management nominates several locations in the National Park where rock climbing is deemed appropriate, the majority of the climbing remains unacknowledged. To maintain access our best approach is to 'Respect Native Habitat, Tread Softly and Leave No Trace'. Do not cut flora and keep any tracks and infrastructure as minimal as possible.

Practically all crags are either in National Park or in council reserve: dog owners are reminded that dogs are not allowed in National Parks at any time and fines have been issued, while for crags on council reserve the BMCC leash law requires that dogs be on-leash.

Accessed by Abseil. Start 25m Right of top of John Arthur Ray (looking out). Rap 40m from BB and tree to chain and small gear belay. Up past bolt and gear to stance below arete. Thin moves to roof, then steep moves on good holds to bulge. Through bulge then up and left on slab to another bulge, then top past 11 bolts. Bring a mixed rack of cams.

50m left of Apostle of Ahisma at Right end of buttress.

P1 (25m - 26) - Traverse left to arete and up past 3 bolts and wires to DBB.

P2 (27m - 21) - Slab past 3 bolts, then right of arete and up to top past nuts and more bolts.

Small sport crag at the far left end of Braddlefish Wall. Detailed info greatly lacking. Seems like a fair bit of unfinished business here with project tags and bail biners.

Up Phalanx p2. Left leading break to BR and up

25m right of Phalanx. Scramble to grassy ledge. Short corner to ledge, steep corner to small ledge. To roof, around and up wide steep corner

Start from end of ledge 3m right of Pirouette. Three BR then right and through overlap to DBB. Up just right of arete. May have been rebolted with rings?

Start 15m right of Pirouette. BR, through bulge and up to DBB. Walk left along ledge and up.

Start at short, dirty crack on grey rock, approximately 40m Right of Town Tip Gully. Climb crack to ledge, then climb corner to roof. Move left, and then up.

150m Right of One Down. Climb low angled vegetated corner (black slab on right) which steepens near the top.

scramble down gully to ledge at 1/3rd height, walk along to belay. 1st pitch 20m up to ledge and double ringbolt belay. 2nd pitch continues straight up to top & double rings.

A short, crimpy sport climbing crag with probably the shortest access of the entire blue mountains. Great morning shade.

Easy shady line on left edge of cliff. Looks dirty but climbs ok.

First route you come to on the main wall.

Rebolted 2004

Was originally graded 26 - but seems to have settled at 25 in the recent print guide.

Thin wall to under roof then right and up bouldery finish. Stickclip first bolt recommended.

Classic sustained technical arete. Start as for Mogmbo for a bolt then traverse right boldly and up the arete.

Right side of Grace arete. Bouldery moves to get started!

The first ascentist wrote this in 2019 "I removed all the bolts today as Requiem For A Whippet has only had a couple of ascents since I bolted it 21 years ago and as there are far really too many infrequently climbed average routes in the BM’s, I feel the blank rock is more aesthetic than the bolted version. This is the beginning of unbolting of my routes that are unrepeated or only occasionally repeated. Any of my routes that are fairly popular or that someone has made the effort to rebolt will be left."

Before doing this be aware that 2 bolts are in a large flake of questionable permanence.

Right of vegetated corner. Fixed hangers to chain.

Start: 2m right of MM.Finishes at MM chain.

Start: Stick clip ring behind the tree. Head up and left. Leavethe tree alone.

Start: As for 'Glucosamine', then right and up.

Start: 4m right of P. Jump to lip then follow bolts left of Pethadine!

A small section of cliff-line within spitting distance of the Great Western Highway and the carpark but almost entirely forgotten by the the current crop of climbers.

The first four routes are on the left side of the cliffline on an orange overhung wall that gets sun from 10am. The first couple of routes share the same start - a vegetated, unprotectable low angle corner that leads to a small ledge with a tree growing on the left end.

Starts up vegetated open corner to tree & ledge then straight up slab to line of closely spaced manky carrots going up overhung scoops and over a short roof. Finish up heading left up ramp on spaced gear to top and tree belay.

Squeezy and with poor rock. Same start as Snail's Special onto ledge - slab up to bolts just right of that route - through a bit of steepness via sandy scoop - then right and up finish of Public Spectacle via couple of BRs. Medium cams supplement the bolts.

A crappier variant finish to Showpiece. Up that route to first bolt - then head left away from the arete into pocketed rock and up past a couple of BRs and jugs to finish on dirty jugs. Medium cams supplement the rusty bolts.

Remarkably steep for the grade and probably the reason you came here. The route originally started with the same vegetated corner as previous 3 routes - but a much nicer start is the arete 5m right of the corner (protected by medium cams) up to right end of ledge. Traverse right boldly across slab to first BR just left of arete. Follow arete upwards with much air below the feet. Bring a single set of cams between 0.5 to 2 Camalot. Rebolted with unusual button head glue in machine bolts - removable hangers still work (you will need 5 for the route and 2 for the top belay).

To the right of Showpiece is a proud overhung corner feature. It starts out as a short crack to rooflet - over this - then up corner and face right of corner? Someone should do this - it would probably need several bolts.

Impressive names on the first ascent - much less impressive route. Start on back (southern side) of Showpiece buttress below short left facing corner. This is looking pretty mossy.

1. 20m Up and left to arete (BR). 2 BRS to DBB and #1.5 Friend

2. 20m off left end of ledge (BR), left to stance (BR), up and right to lip (BR). Up.

Open-book corner 2m right of Workmates with flake and single FH near the top. Rap from bolt anchors on ledge equal to end of Workmates pitch 1.

60m right of Workmates at grey left arete of orange and black wall. Start near narrow gully on left (at ground level). Up right to arete (hidden BR). #2 Friend and 2 BRs to runout wall.

Starts 4m right of Rollover on left end of ledge. BRs, cams and wires.

First two bolts of Punks on the Pass then straight up the flake which blanks to crimps. Finish as for original route.

A great airy journey up an overhung wall and only 1 minute from the car! Starts in the middle of wall. Up subtle flake to first bolt then traverse up and right (shallow pockets) to creaky flake (take care). Continue traversing right and up to far right side of face, up a move then traverse back left and up juggy small grey corner. All ringbolts - no hangers required. Belay off small tree way back.

Has some of this fallen down? Large amounts of fresh rockfall and mini landslide thwarted attempts to cross check this route with original description. Original description reads: Start at big yellow corner capped by roof on right of cliff.

1. 20m Free for 7m then aid crack . Right across wall on BRs then free to BB on ledge.

2. 22m (crux) Traverse slight right on pitons, up crack past flake to roof., traverse right to ledge. Wall to tree belay.

3. 10m Left to corner then up.

While the NPWS Plan of Management nominates several locations in the National Park where rock climbing is deemed appropriate, the majority of the climbing remains unacknowledged. To maintain access our best approach is to 'Respect Native Habitat, Tread Softly and Leave No Trace'. Do not cut flora and keep any tracks and infrastructure as minimal as possible.

Practically all crags are either in National Park or in council reserve: dog owners are reminded that dogs are not allowed in National Parks at any time and fines have been issued, while for crags on council reserve the BMCC leash law requires that dogs be on-leash.
