Description Suggest change

Tallish wall next to a stone arch and behind a short fence in the Rambles with a few problems varying in difficulty. Easiest way up is on the left end of the wall, pad is recommended. More info can be found in Manhattan on the Rocks. 

IMPORTANT ACCESS NOTE: Please DO NOT climb on the arch itself. It is illegal to climb on man-made structures in the park, and climbing on the arches threatens access to all bouldering in Central Park.

Getting There Suggest change

Entering the Rambles from the West via the Oak Bridge, take a right from the bridge and you will run into the archway. Climbing is on the East side of the arch.
