Difficulty: 2 out of 4

Trip leaders: Agathe and Ebba

Max participants: 6

Requirements:

Member of BSI Friluft

Have the Brattkort and some experience climbing outdoors

Description:

Friday:

We will drive to Sogndal Friday early afternoon (the exact time will be discussed at the Ferdaråd). The drive is approx 4 hours to Uteplassen Camping, where we will camp for the weekend. We will eat dinner and get to know each other for the rest of the day.

Saturday:

We will climb at Kvam, which is a 20-minute drive from the camp. There are routes from 3-8c, so there is something for everybody! In the evening we will make dinner and you can go swimming if you want. The camp is right by the water and there is a “stamp” (outdoor hot tub)!

Sunday:

We will climb on Sunday too, before driving back to Bergen in the afternoon/evening.

Brattkort is mandatory for all participants. You can take the test with Bergen Klatreklubb or Tuesday climbing with BSI.

Ferdaråd (MANDATORY meeting):

At Tuesday climbing on 2nd May we will have a mandatory trip meeting, where we will discuss the details of the trip. Especially what we need to rent and when we want to leave on Friday.
