Save the date! Our NZAC Otago Section meeting on March 5th will be the launch of Southern Faces, the third-ever climbing guidebook for Ōtepoti Dunedin—arriving after a 25-year wait since the last guidebook! This beautifully designed book by Riley Smith celebrates the last five decades of local climbing and the immense growth of the scene since the previous guide, Dunedin Rock (2000).The 250 page guide provides essential safety insights, historical context, and highlights the unique climbing culture of Dunedin. From beginner-friendly climbs to the region’s most intimidating routes, Southern Faces is a must-have for everyone keen to explore what the south has to offer. It’s packed with photos, including great shots from the days of lycra through to some of the latest efforts at Lover’s Leap.
This is a fantastic opportunity to check out some of the stunning photos and route descriptions from your favourite crags. There will also be a Q&A session with Riley, so you can learn more about the guidebook and hear about the development of this extensive project.
The guide costs $50. Stay connected through our Facebook page for further details.
