What do you do with the stones/cliffs along North of island?

[IndiaHawker]

Do you terraform to expose them all? Do you leave them blocked off? Interested to see what others do! Photos and map pics would be a helpful bonus!

Please and thanks in advance

I left mine hidden and tucked away a few little things, like the pirate treasure chest, and a little spot where I set up a table with a cup of coffee and a candle in a glass holder on it, with a pillow to sit on and look out at the ocean.

Thank you! How did you create access to the hidden areas, please, or were they just for decoration?

How did you create access to the hidden areas

I just climb down using a ladder. I haven't messed with them since the update, but I suppose putting up vines or permanent ladders would work just fine, if you didn't want to bring a ladder with you all the time.

Mine are hidden, you only see a bit of the wind turbines that peek out from the northern most parts of my rocks. I kinda want an exposed rock section and now that we have the extra inclines im really considering it. I just dont know what i would put there so i havent started the project. I love the rocks in general and i love seeing what people do with them.

My island gets more rugged the farther north you go. I made a rocky coastal hiking trail, which starts at a trail marker by a lighthouse and creeps along past redd's secret beach. Along the trail, I've got a fishing area and a little campsite with one of the kids tents.

But the whole point is that my North coast line is a deliberately hard to get to area, so I didn't terraform much and worked what I did around existing landscape.

on my current island i haven't yet gotten around to doing anything with them, but on my previous island i had a little 'sightseeing' area that looked out over some of the rocks and on it i had done a forced perspective thing with the dollhouses + i think i included a caravan? can't exactly remember. quite possibly also had a toy dinosaur there for some jurassic park vibes - i'll have to see if i can find a picture

Mine is just hidden behind my hockey arena, which makes Redd very difficult to access, but I don’t really care.

I have most of mine exposed. Because I have some houses near there, I make the rocks a spot behind the fence for villagers to hang out at. I noticed some of the music hobby villagers like to sing near the ocean.

All the rocks on my island are covered in gyroids
