Description

A very short approach (like most crags in Bohuslan) and perhaps the easiest climbing among all the crags in the area. There are around 15 established routes here. Most routes are between 5.4 and 5.6. Perfect as an introduction to crack climbing or just a fun mellow day. The coordinates for the cliff are 58.494249, 11.413885 .

To access the top, go to the left edge of the cliff and scramble up a short gully. Continue up and generally right past some rock ledges that require a couple easy bouldering moves.

One route (Diagonalen) has a rappel anchor; the others use trees or gear as anchors and require a walk off.

Getting There

The crag is located about 11.6 kilometers west of Dingle on highway 174. There is a gravel parking spot for the crag on the south side of highway 174. This parking spot holds 5-6 cars if people back in and park appropriately. The coordinates for the parking are 58.493369, 11.413581.

From the parking spot, carefully cross highway 174 and you should find a trail directly across from the parking spot. Follow this trail about 75 meters up to the base of the slab. The trail gains roughly 50 vertical feet.
