EOM @ Araps/Djurite – March
Mount Arapiles • 26 Mar 2022 — 27 Mar 2022
ALL participants on VCC club trips must show proof of double vaccination, or a valid medical vaccine exemption certificate, to attend. To sign in on the trip, all participants must:
- check-in using the QR code provided by the trip leader
- complete and sign the VCC Trip Register as previously.
Both of these measures are to ensure the safety of participants and leaders, as well as expedite COVID-19 contact tracing if necessary.

During these COVID times, all VCC Events and trips may need to be cancelled at very short notice. If this trip goes ahead as planned, it is essential that all intending participants contact the leader prior to the trip, as well as read all of the documents referred to below. Members cannot just ‘turn up’ on the weekend. If the public health advice changes, there may be additional restrictions applicable to this trip.
It is important that all participants read the VCC COVID-19 Safety Plan and VCC Advice to Participants on Club Trips, Courses and Activities before signing up for this trip. The advice and guidelines have been published on our website:

Mt Arapiles provides magnificent climbing days in autumn. There are plenty of options when choosing cliffs in autumn. Depending on the weather, a romp up the Watchtower faces or the shade of Central Gully Right might be best. Go for a walk and climb at some of the more distant cliffs for a bit more solitude.
We will be camping in The Pines, close to the action. There is no better rock to fondle than the hard quartzite of Arapiles, so contact your Trip Leader, Ben Wright, to register your interest.
These EOM@Araps/Djurite trips are intended for all levels of climbers, however Beginner spaces may be limited by the number of experienced leaders who come along. It is recommended that Beginners contact the Trip Leader as soon as possible.
Due to the COVID restrictions, all intending participants must contact the trip leader prior to the trip. Please send through some details about your experience and climbing gear and hopefully we’ll see you there.
