Thomas’s Rjukan 2020 Trip
February 19, 2020 - February 23, 2020
Join the 2020 Rjukan ice climbing trip. Rjukan offers some of the best European ice climbing. Loads of routes concentrated in the vicinity of Rjukan. It is possible to go skiing at Gaustablik ski resort 30 min drive from the hostel.
Accommodation:
Rjukan Old School Hostel. I will make reservations for those signed up in the middle of August. I know Jacob who owns the hostel so contact me direct to be included in this booking. Otherwise, make your own individual booking for the hostel after this time. Address is Rjukan Old School Hostel, Knut Dahlesvei 31, 3660 Rjukan, Norge.
Services:
The hostel has a kitchen and living room. Of course shower, toilets and sauna. There is a very efficient drying room. The hostel rents out ice axes, helmets, crampons and big boots. Get your order in early if you need to. There are shops and banks in Rjukan. Pubs are sparse! Alcohol is sparse and expensive. The Norwegians have very unhealthy alcohol habits! Bring your own if you fancy more than basic beer.
Travel:
Flight to Oslo, Gardamoen Airport, from there rental cars. Approx 3 hours drive to Rjukan, but expect winter roads. Don’t fly to the other two Oslo airports as these are hours further from Rjukan.
