Climbing is currently (2021) possible at Lakeside Wall after it was closed for several years. The access path is still reasonably overgrown. This is a fantastic winter crag and one of the best mid-20s walls in the North Island, especially if you like long, technical routes.

North West
Access
From the carpark, continue up the tarsealed road to the top of the hill and the old village site. Take the second tarsealed road on your left, then almost immediately head into the bush towards the lake via a rough track. Follow the track steeply down beside an old water pipe. The first route you come to is about 50m from the base of the hill. Routes are described from left to right.
