Some of Wānaka’s finest test pieces are located on this group of walls and some excellent mid-grade routes to boot. The climbing is mostly vertical to slightly overhung.

Access

Take the West Wānaka Rd for 1.6km, park at a turnout on the left just before the road reaches the flats. Cross the fence at the stile. There is a creek to your right, either wade across there or head left 100m and cross via a fallen tree. Now head right towards the Big Block (some good bouldering care of Geoff Ellis, Rachel Musgrave and Ed Nepia). For the Blue or Black Walls, head into the bush just before the fence following a steep track with the odd fixed rope. For the White Wall, go to the block in the paddock and head up the cairned track. The track crosses farmland: please respect the stock.
