Spent the day there yesterday with Liz, and it was a nice change from the other areas at Camel's. Worthwhile a visit and you should be able to tick all the climbs in a day.

In terms of directions, in my mind, we found one of the 2 ways easier:

1. Before you get to the lookout start to skirt left below the lookout and simply follow the cliff line until you get to the climbing area of the cliff - a track soon appears above the climbing area

2. Go over the lookout (right and under the railing is best) to the next rocky knoll and a grass cleaering and make your way down left down a grassy gully with some minimal low level scrambling. Then keep traversing down and right towards bottom of cliff where you reach the climbing area.

If people who now start going to the area start putting some rock cairns along the way it should be easy to find.

Well bolted and a great area - some of the first bolts are a bit on the high side but should by ok for most intermediate climbers otherwise if you are a beginner get someone more experienced to clip the first bolt for you.
