Beschreibung

Tall, mostly featureless but not-too-steep slab off to the right of Bretagne.

Einschränk. übernommen von Paarl Rock

The Paarl Rocks are about 60 km north of Cape Town. From Cape Town drive north along the N1, and turn off at Paarl. Look carefully for the sign to the Paarl Rocks Mountain Reserve (it is easy to miss).

Zustieg

From the upper parking, pass through the cave formed by the big boulders then follow the trail out the other side.

Abstieg

Looks walkable off climber's left. There are double-ring-bolts for 3 raps (should be fine on 1x60m) from the end of Gecko/Belly Button Brigade, and it is an easy traverse to this anchor from the top of Dyke.

Erstbegehung: John Terblanche, 2000

Partially bolted. Climbs the slab right of Belly Button Brigade, with two bolts protecting the steeper rock lower down and continuing unprotected to the top. Start a little ways up the gully or your belayer will run out of rope near the top.

Solo. No bolts.

Just right of a small wooded gully there is a very easy looking slab.

  1. Climb the slab past a tree to the top of the block. Step off the block (possible walk-off).

  2. On the left close to the block, near a patch of black rock, is a little edge; using the edge continue straight up.
