<text class="heading1">Oatlands</text><text
        class="intro">Oatlands has been in development since 2001 and is now the best bouldering area in Tasmania. The climbing is on both roofs and faces and is of very high quality. The sandstone is generally quite solid, which is fairly unique for Tasmania. As well as Tasmania's hardest bouldering, Oatlands also has an increasing number of quality moderates. </text><text
        class="text" new="false"
        number="null.">Oatlands can be found about 1 hours drive north of Hobart up the Midlands Highway, or a bit longer than 1 hour south of Launceston.
Park at the picnic area near Milk Point and walk across the Top Dam to get to the areas.
The Devils Kitchen is the obvious, enormous roof and is clearly visible from the parking area.
To get to the southern areas such as the Yellow Cave and Funky Town it is quicker to park near the bottom dam and walk across it.</text><image
