Nowra Climbing

Nowra Climbing is an entirely new comprehensive guidebook to the Nowra region - the mother of all Australian sport climbing. It describes over 1500 routes - twice the number of any previous Nowra guidebook. It is the first guidebook to include the Braidwood Road (aka New Nowra) crags - a major area in its own right with over 630 routes. This book results from a massive collaborative effort. The main contributing authors are Carlie and Rob LeBreton (central Nowra areas) and Neil Monteith (Braidwood Road crags). Previous Nowra guidebook publisher Rod Young also contributed all of his extensive research to this project. And considerable input has come from many other knowledgeable local activists. The elegant design has usability at its core and each page is absolutely information-packed. The tight design has enabled us to fit some: 239 cliff topo photographs, 18 maps, 1500+ route descriptions and 100 action photographs.
