Description

🧗‍♂️ Most likely the best single bloc in the south of Sweden, packed with steep overhanging lines. It hosts a slew of difficult climbs, among them the first 8B+ in Skåne "Luftig kö till nålens öga" established by Erik Bäcklin. The main bloc has a few easier climbs as well, however most of the good stuff is in the moderate to hard grade range.

Visiting Frenchmen Tony Lamiche and Julien Nadiras put up the king line on the backside in 2006, dubbing it "Benchmark 7B+" — a reference to all the sandbagged 7B+ problems in Kjugekull. The sit to the same line, conquered shortly after the stand by Lamiche — might very well be one of the best lines in Sweden and most certainly in Skåne.

Scattered around Hultastenen and in the surrounding forest are a dozen other blocs of the same pleasant rock quality. Most of the climbs are lowballs in the easier grades, but a couple fine highballs have also been put up. It's a small hike to get to them and probably a bit of searching as well, but it's well worth it.
