The place to be for climbing 13-Jan-2011 At 7:12:29 PM Sidney

Thank you for your answers. A lot of good infos! It is not easy to find on internet the details you give!
I have to find a work so I cannot go to much In rural towns and my girlfriend has to do her Thesis.
It looks like there are many good places to climb, a bit far from each other but it is impossible to have everything.
Without entering the eternal debate, I like trad climbing but the idea of doing it on a one pitch route feels strange. Maybe it is just that I only did trad on limestone and it is a bit scary!
So trad for long routes, 1 pitch routes on bolts or with easy placing protections.
If I understand Sydney has good climbing but the town is not so pretty, Melbourne has good but far crags (and rain), Tasmania is often wet but beautiful.

Is their climbing near darwin ?

Thanks
