Description

A small sport climbing wall ~6-8m high with 7 bolted lines in the grades ~4 to ~6c. There is also a lower boulder wall which can be top-roped (bring a static rope) plus some other boulders close by.

Despite the low height the rope wall has a nice collection of routes. All of them are well worth to climb. The easier ones "Flams och trams" and "Grodornas sång" are slabs and very nice for beginners. If you want something a little harder then "Fladdermusens flykt" and "Kulturinstitutionens förfall" are excellent.

The boulder slab wall also has a lot of nice problems. Beware though that they are high, up to 5-6 meters. Bring a pad suitable for highballs.

Recommended routes:
⭐ All of them!

Recommended boulders:
⭐ So fetch!, (3+) - An easy excellent crack.
⭐ 28 days - A nice crimpy highball.
⭐ 6 hours (5) - A highball following a small crack.
⭐ Andra bullar (6B) - Hard topout
⭐ Du lever på lånad tid, kompis (7A)
⭐ Trashpands (7A/6C) - A nice crack that ends in a mantle.

Walls and boulders are the classic granite for the area. The walls are facing south/southwest and will dry relatively fast. The area can be very hot on summer days due to no shade.

When cleaned and bolted the walls were located next to a fairly new clean-cut. As of 2023 the trees have grown significantly and the boulders can be hard to see and reach.

🚘 From Kalmar
The crag is a ~35 minutes drive from Kalmar. Take E22 towards Malmö. Follow the signs towards Påryd before turning to Runtorp.

🚘 If you are in Påryd
Drive H 520 northeast towards Kalmar and take a left turn to Runtorp.

🚘 From Runtorp
Just after a red barn, before the Runtorp sign, turn left to the gravel road between the houses. After crossing the bridge take the first road right. After 2 km keep left after passing a red cottage on your right side. At the crossroad after another 1 km drive straight forward up the slope. 🅿️ You can park at the cross roads at the top of the slope or turn left and continue for 250 m where you find a suitable parking spot on the right side of the road.

🚶🏽‍♀️ From the first parking it's a ~200 meters walk to the wall. Follow the larger road south-west for 170 meters and you have the wall on your left side (south of the road). If you parked at the second parking then walk back 70 meters. The wall is about 30 meters from the road.
