Tombstone

Type

The Tombstone is a popular and iconic feature with climbing on all sides. When it’s too intense in the sun, move around into the shade. The rock quality is excellent and so are most of the routes, which are quick to dry after rain.

Access

It’s hard to miss the monolithic Tombstone boulder. From the Hospital Flat car park, walk about 350m east along the fence line until you reach the steep access track. Walk uphill about 50m.
