The wall right of the Diamond has more good, long, well-shaded routes. The base of Diamond Slab is a capacious, comfortable, and usually sociable place to base yourself on a hot summer’s day.

Access
From the Diamond Lake car park head up the DOC track to the lake and then Rocky Mountain. Just before the lake take the fork to the right and proceed around the south side of the lake about 200m to a small footbridge over the Diamond Lake outlet stream. Immediately after the bridge turn right again and follow the climber’s trail away from the lake. The trail first meets the cliff between Diamond Slab (to the left) and Hotline Corner (to the right).
