Chakrata Wall

Type

The nice little sun soaked wall just to the right of the viewing platform is a classic spot to learn climbing. After seeing the potential for beginners and instructional groups, Dave Brash grid-bolted the wall in the 1990s. The climbs can be accessed from above, using waratah and tree anchors (link more than one waratah and small tree). Take the obvious path leading from the lookout stairs. The original Split Enz theme has been continued for the route names.

The most popular route here. At half height, step right and mantle onto the ledge or, for best value, continue up the face.

Enjoyable climbing to the ledge, culminating in a couple of testing moves through the bulge to the anchor.

Use the drill hole to help you gain the slab, then delicately smear you way up just left of the bolts to the ledge. From here, step up onto the upper slab and climb just right of the bolts to the anchor. Nice climbing all the way.

Spaced pocks help to the solve the blank looking slab.
