Approach: Easy walk up from the main dirt road through the park. Easiest approach is up the talus field coming down from the center ("nose") of the wall, and then traverse along the base to your climb.
Approach Time: 15 minutes from road

Access Issues: As of May 2010, $25 per 24 hours park entrance fee for non-residents; 500 Ksh for residents. Lots of sparrows nesting but neither KWS nor Simon, the resident guide, has restricted climbing.
