Huge potential of boulder problems in the big boulder field just below the horn. Easy walk in by taking the trail towards the "Back Wall" or "Dickson's Falls". Problems of all difficulties can be found. Generally very rough rock, so bring your tape with you. Park rangers advice to stay off the wetlands, which will be the swampy patches you can find off the trails.
Since park rangers advice to stay off the wetlands, I'd say we focus on the boulders close to the trails, along which there is heaps to discover already anyways. If you want to venture, try to avoid treading through the swamps to help preserve this park please!
Climbing here varies from trad climbing, mainly up obvious lines and features, to sport climbing up slabs and sections of rock impossible to protect with natural gear. Of course, there are lots of climbs protected with a mixture of trad gear augmented with occasional bolt runners. Given that the trad ethic is still strong here, and the continuing need to minimize our environmental climbing 'footprint', please avoid unilateral decisions to retro-bolt and be restrained in using fixed protection when establishing new routes.
In its development. First ascents are getting put up by some local climbers (April 2023).

"The Mt Buffalo - A rock climbers guide is the definitive climbing guide book for the granite wonderland of Mt Buffalo. This area is for adventure climbing and for those that love the higher mountain landscapes and rock formations that are unique to the area. Mt Buffalo offers both single and multi-pitch climbs and mainly uses trad gear for protection but there is the odd sport climb around for those that only want to clip bolts.
