Eidetind - a beautiful introduction.

Guided climbing trip:

Do you want an introduction to proper climbing? Or maybe you want to attend a multi-day course on how to put natural protection in the mountains? Mt. Eidetind will then meet your needs. The mountain has several varied routes of very good quality and there are different levels of difficulty.
The routes are descended by rappel.

Which route we choose depends on your skills and wishes. The mountain is accessible and offers nice climbing not far from the E6, but still in very nice, and idyllic settings.
