GROOVE TRAIN

Groove Train is undoubtedly one of Australia's most iconic sport climbs. First climbed by Ben Cossey in 2009 the route became an instant classic and a must do for climbers of the grade worldwide. Famous for big run outs and massive exposure, Groove Train climbs some of the most immaculate sandstone in the country, if not the world.
This is Jacks story. A story of a long term project that required commitment and dedication, a story that sadly now, is on hold.

After the completion of this film, Taipan Wall and many other climbing areas in the Gariwerd / Grampians National Park were put under Temporary Closure bans to protect significant cultural heritage.

This is obviously tragic news for the rock climbing community and something that needs time and respect to resolve.

For more information on these bans and ways to help, check out Simon Madden's great article for Vertical Life.
