Whekenui was the first area to be climbed on at Whanganui Bay, and standing in the parking lot it’s no wonder why – the cliff towers over the rest of the bay. A long, tall section of climbable rock that hosts a ton of climbs of various sorts, from short powerful sport climbs to long multipitch trad. Your trip to Whanganui wouldn’t be complete without stopping here for a couple climbs.
Getting There
Head right along the coastline on the beach to find a trail that leads up into the vegetation. Follow the well laid trail up to the base of the cliff.
