This crag knocked a star off pretty much every route in Wānaka, though the masses haven’t let the guidebook editor actually do that yet. It is a tall (by local standards) slightly overhanging wall nestled in bush and offering continuous face climbing on excellent rock. For anyone climbing (as opposed to thugging) in the high 20s, this is a great place to be.
