ROCK FALL

There has been a huge rockfall on the way to the cliff. This hasn't affected the climbing but makes it rather scary getting to the routes. The college has now suspended activity there. It might be possible to make a path from the other side but until that is done it's probably best not to go there.

A new cliff has been developed for beginners and has 3 top rope routes but no leading bolts as yet. To get to the cliff park at the parking place on the way to raudbua above the white house (where I live). Follow the road for a few meters then take the track leading down to the fjord on the left, follow this until you see the cliff in the trees. The routes range from very easy on the right to quite easy on the left. Flag lines are in place on some routes. The path has now been cleared so it is possible to get to most of the climbs without going under the loose section. Go towards Flekke from the teachers car park for about 100m to a gravel road on the right. Follow this to a parking place where the road stops at a steep grassy bank leading down to the fjord. Make your way down a steep valley to the fjord moving towards the left. When you reach the fjord follow the path along the waters edge to the right. Continue until you get to a tunnel, this is it.
