About Grampians — Bundaleer

Bundaleer is a steep, intimidating trad crag of dark overhangs in the central Grampians (Gariwerd), reached from Halls Gap via Mt Victory Road, Glenelg River Road and Stony Creek Road to the locked gate on Rosea Track, then a short walk. Park well off the road, as Rosea Track is used for fire access. The cliff faces east, so it bakes in the morning sun and is in shade in the afternoon, which makes it a popular summer crag. The steep rock dries quickly, but Grampians sandstone is brittle when wet: wait until it's fully dry.

Region: Grampians
