Ice Climbing In Rjukan, Norway


A kinda of mecca of ice climbing in Northern Europe, Rjukan hosts a staggering amount of ice climbs all within a close distance of eachother. They tend to have a reliable winter seasons due to being surrounded by artic seas, and being situated on a high northen latitude. Recently I have come across a super sweet guidebook/topo that should work if you ever are planning a visit to Norway. There is good skiing around and a wonderful culture to keep you busy while you discover this wonderful country. Looks awesome! ENJOY!

Included is a link to a great webpage with the lowdown of the area and a downloadable pdf topo/guide.
