We, as the WĀNAKA Climbing Club, are a loose collective, reluctantly banded together to freely serve the interests of climbing in the WĀNAKA vicinity.

 
  • by charming, pleading, and wheedling with land-owners and managers for unfettered and ongoing access to quality rock. And ensuring care and respect for our lovely natural or rural spaces.

  • by furnishing the hard cash and brutish labour to establish and maintain the highest standard sports routes and comfortable and convenient infrastructure.

  • by publishing a guide book, sharing facts and figures, big data and pithy home truths to guide and educate the masses. To foster superior bolt-craft, safe practices and decorous crag etiquette.

  • by providing a forum to connect the climbing community, sell old shoes, and raise a rabble to do the necessary housework, DIY and gardening and make the world a better place.

  • by creating a welcoming environment, fostering good sportspersonship, a minimum of committee meetings and very much fun.
