Himlingen Map 1212 IV Stavanger Grid ref 138307 South West facing.

Location and access

As with Dale and Gramstad this crag sits on the east side of Gandsfjorden and is ideal for summer evenings.

Follow the road from Sandnes to Dale and take a right turn (Sandvikbakken) and drive up through a hideous complex of apartments, park at the end of a covered private parking garage. follow the track up along the small stream (path is marked with small blue-purple blobs of paint).

The path leads to to the start of folly grove.

Crag notes

Three routes are outlined in the guide but I suspect there are many more. The best is folly grove which goes up through the notch in the overlap on huge jugs.

Natural protection - with a chain abseil point at the top of the crag. 2 x 50m ropes needed.
