Adventure in The Warrumbungles: Climbing Beyond the Everyday

Adventure in the Warrumbungles has a way of making you feel small in the best possible way.

Enjoy.

A big part of what makes this possible is the sheer number of crags with different aspects, different angles and different levels of exposure to the wind. In the summer we seek out shady caves in gullies that catch the afternoon breeze, and in the winter we flock to sun-soaked crags to enjoy the golden winter light.
Here are some of our favourite winter sun-traps for
