NB Postage!: Due to the low mark up on books, maps, videos and DVDs we have had to charge a contribution towards UK postage on most of these items. This charge is 50p on very light books, £1 on most club style guides and DVDs, £2 on Rockfax and similar size guides and £3 for bigger books. These charges are waived for orders totalling over £60 and for Priority Orders. Overseas orders will be charged at cost.

Open Spaces Publishing - Arapiles Selected Climbs (2008)

Arapiles Selected Climbs (2008) Over 1200 routes, excellent photo topos (please click the image to see a sample), great maps and inspiring photography in this "Rockfax style" selected guide to the Arapiles (pronounced Arra-pill-ees), one of Australia's premier rock climbing venues.

By Simon Mentz and Glenn Tempest, card cover, 392 pages.

Although the guide is quite expensive it is nearly as dear in Australia and from what we have been told very hard to get hold of - probably best to buy before you go, although it will add nearly three-quarters of a kilo to your luggage!

This item attracts a UK £2 postal charge but this is waived for Priority Orders or if the Order Total is greater than £60.
