Spring Equinox weekend camping at Honeysuckle Creek

September 23, 2023 - September 24, 2023

Honeysuckle Creek campground

Spend this Spring Equinox weekend climbing at Booroomba Rocks, Honeysuckle Crag or on the Orroral Ridge (requires a steep 4km walk or bike ride each way, unless the road is open to vehicles) and join other climbers at Honeysuckle Creek campground on Saturday night.

What better way to enjoy our 12 hours of sunlight and night time?

Climbing

You will need to have a climbing partner to go climbing on this weekend.

The weekend is not an introductory activity for novice climbers, and there will be NO GUIDED CLIMBING for this event. If you cannot arrange a leader, you are welcome to still come along for the camp out.

If finding your way around Booroomba Rocks and identifying individual climbing routes is a challenge, please join Brian Mattick for a guided tour of Booroomba Rocks on the Saturday.

Camping

The CCA will pay camping fees at Honeysuckle Creek Camp Ground, and we will provide wood for the campfire.

Honeysuckle Creek Camp Ground has water, toilets, fireplaces, picnic tables and chairs.  There is no electricity.  You will need to provide everything else, including:

  • Warm clothes, beanie, gloves etc. in many layers. It will be cold overnight!
  • Dinner and breakfast, including food, cooking utensils, stove, plates and bowls, cup etc.
  • Tent, sleeping bag, sleeping mat, torches, a folding chair and any other creature comforts you feel are necessary.

We will be camping about 30-70m from the car park.
