Little Babylon

Type
Crag
Part of
Darrans

The most popular sport crag in the Darrans, thanks to the steep-but-friendly climbing, the immaculate rock, and the fact that the crag stays mostly dry in all but the nastiest weather.
To minimise your impact, please:

  • Don’t pee within the drip-line at the base of the crag. Head into the bush instead.
  • Take your rubbish and your other gear with you when you leave.
  • Avoid excavation or destruction of vegetation around the base of the crags, and keep to the formed tracks. The bush here is slowly regenerating.

Access

To get there, start by following the track to Babylon. At the point where the track heads left just as you reach Babylon, continue up and right and keep climbing through the bush for another 20 minutes. You’ll emerge more-or-less at the middle of the crag, pretty much under Bish Bosh Bash. You’ll see a waterfall to your left, from which you can usually gather water.
