Description

Finsjö is an easily accessed and dense boulder area, with high quality stone. There are still lots of boulders that can be developed. Here you can find boulders from font grade 3 up to 8B. Remember to always keep low profile and to take care of the nature.

Recommended problems:
⭐ Livelihood (8A) and the sit start (8B)
⭐ Neighbourhood (8A)
⭐ Avec (7C)
⭐ Twitter (7C)
⭐ Swedbank is completely different (7B)
⭐ Real Frogger (7A)
⭐ Back of the hand (6C)

Best season is usually spring and autumn. The landings are generally good but an extra crashpad or two is never a bad idea. Some of the boulders can be tricky to get down from so check your options before ascending.

History

These boulders were found in 2013. After explaining what bouldering is to an elderly gentleman he told Adnan about this place and was kind enough to show the rocks. The area was slowly developed but has gotten more attention lately (~2023).
