Top Ice Climbing in Eastern Norway

If you're a beginner, definitely consider hiring a guide for your first climb. It was a bit of an extra expense, but totally worth it for the personalized tips and safety.

My advice is to check the weather a few days ahead. I didn't and ended up with a day of rain - which made for slippery conditions and less fun than I expected.

Be sure to rent gear from the local shops instead of the rental place at the base. I found much better deals and friendlier service in town.
