Nakkivuori is a beautiful cliff with lots of variety in the steepness of it. Rock quality is mostly good, but at some parts slightly more rough and brittle. The diversity of the cliff make the routes quite adventurous, with many routes having ledges between sections. There are some cracks fit for trad climbing. Said ledges and cracks often collect pine needles and other muck. It's suggested to bring a brush with you and to brush the worst of it while descending. This way we can keep the cliff in it's best possible state for climbing. There are also vertical and overhanging routes available. The longest route on the cliff is "Liukumiinakenttä", which is a (for Finnish standards) huge 35 meters tall. The diversity of the cliff also makes Nakkivuori a great spot for beginner climbers, as the routes are mostly safe to climb and to belay. The cliff also contains tougher routes for more experienced climbers.
The cliff faces west, so the sun shines during the evenings. Thankfully the trees in front provide shade for the lower section. During Spring, the ice on the cliff melts quickly. Climbing is also possible long into the Fall. Sector #5's horizontal crack seeps water after rain for an uncomfortably long time. Below the cliff the terrain is swampy, and thus there are tons of mosquitos.
