OLD BALDY- GRANITE FAITH & FRICTION CLIMBING

20 June 2024 by Admin

Sport climbing (bolted climbs)
Multi-pitch
Overall feel– on-balance, granite friction climbing

Easy access. These are 4-6 pitch routes, which meander up a huge dome of granite. Located in rural traditional Zulu country. Nearest airport– Durban or Pietermaritzburg

Best for climbers who can already climb in the moderate grades. Has a big feel about the place. Peak High has a policy that clients will belay the guide only with auto-locking or assisted breaking type devices. (e.g. GriGri or ATC Pilot) We provide these if clients do not already have them.
