For climbing
For climbing and belaying at the Climbing Center it is mandatory to carry the national climbing licenses. For top rope belaying the green license is sufficient. For lead climbing and lead belaying the red license is needed.
Hvis du ikke har noen av disse licenser, men har den riktige kunnskapen og ferdighet, kan du tage prøven (called klättring, in Swedish). Eksamen består af en kort skriftlig prøve efterfulgt af en praktisk prøve. Hvis du passerer disse, vil du få den grønne eller den røde licensen, afhængigt af hvilken test du tager. Give us a call to find a time to perform the test at +46 (0) 18-4180814, or email us at uppsala@klattercentret.se,
You can take the exam with a GriGri, Jul2 or a rope break off a slot model (ATC, Verso etc).
If you don’t have the skill and knowledge yet, please attend our top rope course. The course is held over three sessions. Read more about this course here.
