Descrição

All day sun, easy access, good rock & several entry level routes make this the most popular crag near Henningsvær. It´s the first one in/last one out of condition each season and can stay climbable January through November.

In the summer, expect to line up for the guidebook classics.

Descent notes

A pleasant walk off (West).

There is also an abseil line which was rebolted April 2020. 2 rapps (42 & 34m). It´s not unusual for the ropes to get snagged.

A classic & the first route to dry on the wall

One of the best lines here. Pitch 1 goes just right of Gandalf & up the corner with a tree before trending right & up the arete to a large belay ledge. Pitch 2 heads right & then up the short & steep hand crack (crux) to a ledge. The final pitch takes gradually easing finger cracks through the orange rock to the summit.
