The endless opportunities and stable climate offer visiting ice climbers good ice conditions from November to April. Hemsedal has short ice-waterfalls for beginners, classics like Hydnefossen and Grøtenutbekken (with some of the country’s most demanding mixed routes and fantastic alpine winter routes). Hemsedal is the essence of ice and winter climber and has everything an ice climber could wish for; Hemsedal is a wonderland!
