Description

Ruopsa is defined by easy access, abundance of climbing, good rock and at some boulders a peculiar rock texture , and boulders that are accessible on your own with couple pads.
Landings are usually fine, but also more skillfull pad placement can be found.
You can find also taller problems, and even highballs, mainly little further away from the main area.

Older Classics include atleast: Taas täällä, Tomurcuk tunemek, Viiden sekunnin sääntö, Hot stuff and Happy ending from 7th grade, and Vegan Vampire, Pikku hänkki, Tomurcuk, Bohemian Corner and Lämppä from 5-6c+.
New problems behold many challengers to enter classic status.

Nature is beautiful and tranquil, and reindeers might pop up to see you.

Kemijärvi city is just a 20min drive away from the rocks. So easy to find accomodation, camping, and food. For cleaning the climber we recommend swimming hall, and pöyliöjärvi beach in summer temps.
