Extract from the guidebook........"Cochrane Lane Cliffs is by the far best climbing destination in New Brunswick and arguably the best in the East. The climbs range from 30' single pitch to 300' multi-pitch styles ranging between trad, sport, and mixed with majority of the routes being traditional
Approach notes
In short a nightmare! They are located on on CFB Gagetown training grounds and you are supposed to gain permission by obtaining a pass at the Camp Petersville on Enniskillen Road (located 10 min before Welsford). We tried that but with no joy, they knew nothing about it....not recommended but we spoke to another climber who said just go there so we did and had no problems. Perhaps contact the UNB Rock and Ice club 422-2000 ext 3121 or email climb@unb.ca. Good luck!
Restricted Access
Some of the crags in this area are on Canadian Military land. Members of Ascent NB need to call Range Control before going. Non-members must present themselves in person to Range Control and procure a pass. 506 422-2000 ext 3121
This is actually very easy to do. Drive to the Guard Hut at the entry to the Peterville camp on Enniskillen Road (about 10 mins north of Welsford). The process of obtaining a permit takes about 2 mins (even on a weekend!).
Please don't ignore this requirement; you yourself could potentially face a large fine, and it will also jeopardise otherwise good relations between climbers and the military.
| We're not sure why the original contributor had difficulties obtaining a permit as the process seemed very straightforward (Oct 2019).
