Description

Welcome to østhagen !

We prefer trad routes here, and there are a few bold lines. But for the most part the climbing is well protected, and topropes are easy to set up. We do not wish to put in bolts where it can be avoided - but will off course place bolts when we need to, as weel as anchors on top, for all routes.
for the sector veiveggen, the top can be accessed by following the wall into the woods and there are several paths to the top.
The sector takveggen can be a bit difficult to find, we will try to make a gps trail for this soon

the parking can be found about 200 meters past the main sector \ veiveggen. You drive through a left turn, and a parking spot will appear on the left side.

Please take care of the area, do not make noise and scare the horses on the opposite side of the road.

Also take garabage back home, and leave the area like you found it !

Feel free to send me an email : knuteldejohansen@gmail.com , if you have questions, comments or feedback of any kind

We really hope you will enjoy this place as much as we do. WELCOME !

History

For us this is a relatively new crag, our development started late 2018. But we have heard that people climbed on the smaller walls, around the parking area, more than 40 years ago.
But the lines developed by us, were not climbed at that time, we believe that atleast Arne Lind and Keith Robson, were the pioneers back then, and we are glad to pick up the amazing lines that they left for us

The area is access sensitive!

for the sector veiveggen, the top can be accessed by following the wall into the woods and there are several paths to the top.
The sector takveggen can be a bit difficult to find, we will try to make a gps trail for this soon

the parking is now at the big school/ sport center, called ROS Hallen, we have been allowed to drive in to the crag, stop too deposit climbing equipment, but we all need to drive the car back for permanent parking. the locals and landowners are mostly positive to climbers, so let us keep it that way. they are even looking into creating both toilets and parking, and camping, that will be made accessible for us, and is located close to the climbing.

Please take care of the area, do not make noise and scare the horses on the opposite side of the road.

Also take garabage back home, and leave the area like you found it !
