First climb at Salveo Gym

A few days ago I went to Salveo Gym in Sundbyberg.

Anna F. and I did some bouldering upstairs. There is a good mix of problems, and many of them are quite challenging.

After an hour or so of bouldering, we strapped on our harnesses and walked downstairs to the bottom of the the twenty-six-meter wall — the tallest indoor climbing wall in Scandinavia.

Here's Anna climbing a 5c-rated route up the tall wall. I managed to make it to the top in one go.

Salveo is a big place with lots of amenities, and it's very shiny and new. I still prefer the climbing — and particularly the bouldering — at Klättercentret. KC is cozy and the folks there feel like a family. Even so, I do like Salveo and I'm sure I'll climb there again.
