Description

It is easy to understand why Galgeberget is so popular. The approach is short, the walls dries quickly after rain and there are always possibilities to find shade on warm summer days. The granite is compact, cleanly cut and offers superb climbing.

The different walls all have their own personalities. Make sure to visit them all.

Descend suggestions from the top:

- South wall: If you climb the south-facing wall, it is recommended to descend on foot via the eastern side of the mountain. Walk north until you're down, and go back to the routes along the cliff. It takes a couple of minutes, a lot
faster than taking the long way around. To facilitate taking this route, there has also been set up some fixed ropes in the gorge down the side of the mountain.
In 2024 a new rappel sling has been added around the juniper (enbuske) on the right south side of the cliff, if you prefer the rappel. Remember it is always the climbers responsibility to assess the rappel point and the junipers condition before rappelling.

In 2024 there was added a rappel sling around a tree (pine), above "Stora Hörnet" far west on the south wall. Here, a 28 m long rappel takes you down to the ground.

Galgeberget

The area is access sensitive!

The road is private but it’s OK to use it, drive slow, don't make a shortcut over the parking lot when you are turning in on the gravel road at Röe Café! Park on the left side just before the crag – nowhere else!

People are living on the other side of the meadow. High sound level by the cliff is very easily heard from these houses. Please show respect to the neighbours and keep an extra low profile / sound level.

Follow the parking instructions on the sign at the parking. Parking is only permitted in the parking pocket, inside the marked line, and certainly not along the road. If the parking lot is full, drive back and park at the gravel lot at Röe farm and enjoy the walk to the cliff.

The walls of Galgeberget are protected by Bohuslän Climbing Club's bolt policy. No further bolting will be accepted.
