Hi all,

Please be aware that access to Lowdina will be changing going forward.

The landowner (Noel) continues to remain happy for climbers to access and climb at the cliff.  However, this will be on the basis that he has met you. The CCT / crag steward(s) will accommodate this as follows:

  • An annual BBQ will be held prior to winter each year at the start of the cliffs 'season'. This will be held at Noel's house, below the cliff.
  • All climbers are invited to attend the BBQ for a meet and greet with Noel (and an optional arvo climb!)
  • The crag steward(s) will compile a list of attendance, and this will be provided to Noel. Attendance at the BBQ will form the basis of access to the cliff.
  • If you can't make the BBQ on the day and don't go on the attendance list, you can still visit the cliff with someone who did, provided you're climbing with them.
  • The current process of texting Noel about your intended visit the day before and receiving the OK is still valid. 
  • Please do not attempt to visit the cliff if you haven't received the OK from Noel. Permission to climb on his land will not be given, unless you attended the BBQ, or are with someone who did.

To summarise new access requirements:

  1. Attend the Annual BBQ at Noel's house. Eat some free food, say hello, learn about the farm and any access requirements from Noel.
  2. Either of:
    1. You went to the BBQ - Text Noel the day prior to your visit - wait for the OK from Noel.
    2. You didn't go to the BBQ - Tag along with someone who did, and has already got the OK from Noel.
  3. Sign into the register at the stile before walking up the hill.
  4. Go climbing. Be back at your car before dark.

Please be reminded that access to this crag is a privilege, not a right.


The 2026 Annual BBQ will be held at Noel's house, on the 14th June from 12:00pm to 1:30pm.
RSVP to lowdina@climbersclubtas.org.au by at least the day prior.
Food and drinks provided by CCT.
Address: 1243 Colebrook Road - first driveway on the left before the turn-off to the cliff car park, if coming from Richmond. Please don't block the driveway.

Cheers,

Christoph
Crag Steward
