Svartøien is the most recent bouldering area in Oppdal. The bouldering is also close to the sport-crag Ishoel, both 15 minute drive from Oppdal. Most of the problems are in the 6A-7A spectrum, and some of them are really nice. Take the gradings with a pinch of salt, as some of the problems have not seen many repeats. All the projects are of course free to try.
The rock is gneiss and generally solid with good friction. Landings are also relatively flat, so 1-2 pads should be enough for most of the problems even though there are exceptions:)
Climbers have the responsibility to not disturb the people or animals living nearby in any way. Be friendly and advise caution. Please use the big parking space before the bridge, or the smaller parking spaces further up the road (1-2 cars) without blocking the road. Do not park on the south side of the bridge.
