About Albert Terrace:

climbs are dotted around both sides of the canyon, about 8m high. Rock quality is variable, subtle climbing is required. Easily T/R from trees. Lines are protected from weather and sun. All routes worth doing on the main crag are now bolted, and then some.
Directions: At the roundabout intersection of Wilsons and Centaurus roads, take Albert Terrace until it ends at a paddock gate and you can see the main crag. Park on the side of the street and climb over the stile next to the gate. Walk across the paddock (no dogs!) and over another stile to enter Mt. Vernon Park. Follow the the obvious walking track up the valley to the crag.
Approach: Park at end of Albert Terrace, walk to crag.
Approach Time: 5min
Latitude, Longitude: -43.57197, 172.65787
