Crag features

Multi-pitch wall climbing with modern bolts and the amazing summit of the Lost Pillar.

This is a major section of cliff, up to 150m high, that is rarely visited. This is mostly because there isn't a good track to the top of the cliff, be prepared for some navigational challenges. The star attraction of this cliff is the Lost Pillar, a free standing 80m high slender pillar with several trad and sport routes up each side. Although this is a fun summit there are many better quality routes on the walls around it that involve rapping in and climbing out. Much of this cliff faces south west so get shade until quite late in the day. For most of these routes you will need at minimum double ropes, or even better a 100m static rope as well as a lead rope.

Approach notes

Park at large pull out 2.2km west from Mt Wilson turn-off on Bells Line of Road. Cross road to south side and locate well worn foot path. Follow this for 15 minutes (it turns into an old road) until it disappears. Follow yellow coloured tape markers through bush and down ridge to small col. Drop down right side (keep following the tape markers!) and follow cliff edge into gully and back up the other side. Continue along semi-open ground following tape markers for another 15 minutes to arrive at cliff top - see area description for the two separate rap access points. It is highly recommended to take a GPS (Carpark -33.5353, 150.3195 Halfway -33.5436, 150.3140 Lost Pillar -33.5489, 150.3099)
