Spittle Hill

Type
Sector
Part of
Castle Hill Kura Tawhiti

Boulders of all sizes litter the hillside south of Woolly Valley. There are a few excellent climbing routes here, but also quite a few more that are of marginal quality at best. Most bolts are simply coach bolts hammered into the soft limestone – please treat them with extreme caution. For bouldering information visit http://castlehillbasin.co.nz

Access

Follow the main access track from the carpark and Spittle Hill is on your left. Woolly Valley separates Spittle Hill from the Quantum Field. The Cyclops Boulder is a good place to orient yourself. It is a big diamond-shaped boulder with a huge pocket in the centre, near the valley floor.
