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.
