The Best Bouldering between Finland and Sweden is on the island of Åland. No longer a secret spot the island attracts not just climbers from Finland and Sweden but from across the world. And so I arrived with four fellow German climbers on a large ship on the island, in search of red granite boulders.
To escape the winter in Germany, we flew in late December for 6 weeks to Gran Canaria, to explore the possibilities of bouldering on the island. At the moment there are just a few information about the areas. Landed on the iland the sun greeted us for the next 6 weeks and we moved into our home, in a quiet valley with views of the great Atlantic Ocean. And now go bouldering.
