    Matkalipun kelloanajasta päätellen varmaan olette jo pitkällä jos suoraan lähti satamasta :) Vai seikkailetteko Tallinnassa? Siellähän olisi boulderointihallikin. Joku sellainen kartta voisi olla hauska, mistä näkee aina missä kohtaa ollaan nyt ja sitten voi google mapsilla stalkkailla.

Avalonia Is Every Bouldering Climber's Sanctuary In Germany

Image
Are you one of those North-European cimbers, who escape the cold and drive to the sunny Spanish cliffs for the winter? Or perhaps you are on your way back to enjoy the short northern climbing season? If you happen to travel through Germany, spend a day or two bouldering at the unbelievable Avalonia . Me and T stopped there for a few days as we drove towards Sweden from Fontainebleau . A tip from two German friends led us to this rare find – one of the few good bouldering areas between Font and North Europe. Grim caves are the thing at Avalonia. If you have any luck, you'll even get yourself a local guide at Avalonia. Don't get me wrong, though! Avalonia can't be compared to Fontainebleau. It's is a place to make a short pitstop driving to or from Fontainebleau and as such, Avalonia serves well. Easy access and convenient location near the huge highways and a couple of campsites make Avalonia almost perfect sanctuary for a travelling climber tired of drivi

Tips For Climbing And Camping In Chulilla, Spain

Image
Chulilla is one of the more popular climbing destinations, that we've visited so far. The name started popping up as soon as we left Lisbon area and headed towards Spain. "A ton of long, vertical routes", "soft(ish) grades, if you manage to find the rests", "wonderful place to camp" were some of the things we heard about Chulilla before arriving there. And were the rumors true? Read on to find out. These tips for climbing and camping in Chulilla are based on first-hand experience around April 2018. Equip yourself with plenty of quickdraws + 80 m rope The routes in Chulilla really are L-O-N-G. I recommend packing a set of 20 quickdraws and an 80-meter rope, if you're planning on climbing in the canyon. At some other sectors you might get away with less draws and a slightly shorter rope, but in the canyon you'll end up missing out on a great bunch of amazing routes. Long Dong John (6b+) at Chorreras was my first route there, and of course I

6 Weeks Of Bouldering In Alcañiz, Spain: Best Sectors and Other Useful Tips

Image
My fingertips feel a bit sore while typing this post, since me and T have now spent 6 weeks bouldering in Alcañiz . In case you haven't hear of the place, Alcañiz is located roughly 200 km from the famous Albarracín and offers you hundreds of boulder problems away from the masses. Hills and valleys surrounding the town of Alcañiz are a home for legions of liquorice ice cream colored boulders, that vary both in shape and how easy (or hard) they are to grasp. Yellow roofs, deep hollows and pockets in contrast with black, smooth slabs... Oh, and plenty of problems made for honing on your manteling skills! All on sandstone, that provides an excellent friction from autumn to spring. Alcañiz offers diverse bouldering from low 6s' all the way up to something only Nalle Hukkataival can climb. Photo from El Arenal. There's so much I want to tell you about bouldering in Alcañiz, that I decided to share it into two individual posts. This time I'm going to get you
