8 hours Pyhä-Luosto/kemijarvi

About this activity

Learn essential techniques and enjoy plenty of climbing on a stunning Tajukangas frozen wall right next to the Pyhä Ski Resort. While prior belaying experience is beneficial, it’s not a requirement to join.

  • Common risks in ice climbing and how to prevent them
  • Preventing cold injuries
