Now known as The AGS Rockwall. Near the city centre Mt Eden Quarry offers a good range rock climbing on columnar basalt. While there are some bolted routes the majority can be protected naturally or top-roped using the bolted anchors provided. The Quarry is divided into two climbing areas - 'Long Side' and 'Short Side'.
Good topo here. and here.
To climb at the AGS Rockwall you are required to register before climbing. More details can be found at:

Located in the heart of Auckland with parking just a few dozen meters away. The crag has a "short" and "long" side a short walk apart.

Very social and friendly crag often with climbers happy to put a top rope up for you or give you pointers. Matt crawford - 09/Jun/08 |
