Crag features

Many buttresses and faces from 8m to 23m scattered around a beautiful river valley on Stephen Shaw's farm. Mainly well bolted sport routes with a few trad crack challenges. A great addition to the Wharepapa area.

Approach notes

Through farmland, but only with the agreement of the farmer, Stephen Shaw. 

Restricted Access

You will need to be a bit organised to climb at Shawthing Rock… Ring/text at least a day before to book in (not after 9pm please), it’s a working farm; there may be hazards to tell you about.

• Access is a privilege. Not a right.

• Probably closed in the wet winter months.

• No dogs, no shooting. The normal stuff!

• Follow the leave no trace guide- so take all your rubbish (Including biodegradable) out with you.
