Sydney

Sydney has an incredible amount of rock scattered around practically the entire city. The options range from steeply overhanging sport routes, crimpy walls and slabs, big scary seacliffs, beach boulders and bush boulders. With the convenience to home, routes have been put up on practically every bit of rock, so the choices are enormous. Watch for rusty bolts near the sea!
