climbing in Västervik 116 pages language english edition 2014 J. Wasmuth, D. J. Wasmuth

A handy guidebook that packs a punch. The almost 400 pages (A5 format) contain 44 climbing areas and crags as well as 7 bouldering spots.Roughly estimated, this should add up to around 1000 routes. All of them are single-pitch routes, the majority of which are equipped. However, if you want, you will also find enough routes to hide your wedges and friends in the granite. Some of the "areas" presented are quite manageable and can also consist of just one granite hump with a handful of routes (some of which are equipped). However, they all have one thing in common - tranquillity and unspoilt nature. Here you look forward to the first day of rest. Lose yourself in deep forests, set sail in a kayak, pay a visit to the Baltic coast ... or to nearby Stockholm?The guide has a classic structure. At the beginning there is a list of all the areas included, together with their marking on a map. This is followed by the familiar introductory words (also translated into English) and an explanation of the pictograms used. The individual areas are then all briefly characterized in Swedish. Important, however: all areas are provided with GPS coordinates, the directions are always translated into English and all important information for climbing is provided by the unmistakable pictograms (approach time, orientation, steepness of the terrain, children, rain). The topos are clearly marked on hand-drawn sketches of the crags. The usefulness of this guide is therefore extremely high, even without knowledge of Swedish.392 pagesLanguage SwedishEdition 2011F.

The original is back! 11 years after the last edition. Anyone planning to climb in this part of Sweden (western Sweden, north of Gothenburg, from Lysekil to Strömstad) shouldn’t leave their nuts and friends at home. “Climbing in Bohuslän” is the guidebook to what is perhaps the only climbing destination in Sweden that is truly world-class. The combination of granite so perfect it is unparalleled, with beautiful lines and picturesque surroundings near the sea, is hard to beat.This extremely well-organized guide covers more than 2,500 routes on approximately 140 crags (40 more crags and 1,050 more routes than in the previous edition), though very few of them are bolted.These are almost exclusively single-pitch routes, most of which follow a crack in top-quality granite that is easy to protect. The difficulty levels are fairly evenly distributed and range primarily from grades 5 to 7 on the Swedish scale (5a–7a French).The guidebook is divided into 12 areas. At the beginning of each chapter, there is an overview of the individual areas sorted by number of routes and grade, as well as a zoomed-in map section of the region. The individual areas are briefly described again—and thankfully, the detailed route descriptions to the selected walls have been translated into English! The essential approach sketch further aids orientation. In addition, this new edition includes QR codes for parking areas and walls/sectors. The topos in the climbing guide are mostly high-quality color photos or, less commonly, graphic representations.440 pagesLanguage: Swedish / Introductory chapters on how to use the topos and on the area, as well as access and route descriptions, are also available in English.Edition 2026H. and P.
