Description

Picturesque setting by the river, nice sunny aspect (although you'll melt in summer.) You can expect the occasional loose or wobbly block - bring your helmet.

Approach

After parking at gate 15 for the Onkaparinga River National Park, follow the "Climbers Track" sign and walk a few hundred metres to 'Top Cliff'.

Head through the left gate and follow the downwards sloping path past the bollards and then down all the way to the river for about 15-20 minutes and, like many large red rock formations, it is pretty hard to miss.

If the river is very high, some rock jumping required to get all the way around to the outcropping at the far end where some of the easier climbs like 'April Sun in Cuba' are.

Save a little energy for the trek back as its all up hill.
