Crag features
Sitting on the edge of Fjordland, this climbing area has undergone a lot of development over the past 3 years. The routes are mostly excellent quality mixed trad or sport climbs on good granite. It's well worth the 45 min slog up the hill, which yields the feel of alpine climbing, in sight of the road!
Good topo here.
Approach notes
Find your way to the Borland Lodge. Mark the odometer at the gate into the park and drive 9.5km along the dirt road. Park at the pylon (#89). Eagle Rock and the Upper Bluffs should be visible from the road.
Follow cairns through gully to large boulder which chokes the creek. Head into the beech forest on the true left of the creek and follow the spur (and tape) next to the creek for 10 min. Then veer right and and straight up for about an 45min, following tape and passing most difficulties on the left. A fixed rope leads onto the ridge. It's another 10 minutes to the cliffs. There is space for 2 tents on "Puke Point" and the Borland Bvivy sleeps 5-6 people.
