Off to Bohuslan in a couple of weeks. The guidebook doesn't seem to be available in UK - does anyone know if it can be bought in Bohuslan? Or alternatively is there anyone on here with a copy who would like to sell it to me?

We visited a few years ago and got really lucky - bumped into the guidebook author at the first crag we visited! Hanna Restorp, lives (or did then) in the town, and it's not a big place! There's a bit of info here to start you off: https://rockaroundtheworld.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/scandi-rock-cli...

It's a brilliant area! Enjoy, cheers, Dom

27 crags app has good coverage for Bohuslan (if you get the premium version) so there is a backup if you can't get the guide

Bohuslän isn't that small, I just checked on Wikipedia (can't stop a researcher researching 😉) 299 000 people live in the province, a lot more than I realised. I remember Lysekil felt like a reasonable big port town for example. Which town did you stay in?

I agree though that the climbing is great and the surroundings lovely. 

Joe - if you can't track down a book, pay for the premium access to 27Crags as there looks to be loads on there. I do have a guidebook but it's going on 20 years old plus has some sentimental value to me! There's a reasonable amount on UKC too, you should definitely do this one https://www.ukclimbing.com/photos/dbpage.php?id=201603 it's so good! Have fun. A report of my first trip there: https://lightfromthenorth.blogspot.com/2011/06/bohuslan-climbing-trip-repor...

The guidebook is available in the small grocery store Tempo in Brodalen. They have a small selection of climbing gear too.

Cool, thanks all for the info! Will attempt to get a book out there and fall back on 27crags if they have run out

I was there 18 months ago and because the guide was sold out and unavailable anywhere (we didn't know about it being available in Brodalen) the owners of the gite/camping at Haller let people photograph the pages of their copy. We also used 27 Crags.

The guidebook was sold out, but like Stefan said before, it is available at Tempo Brodalen again. I checked last week. @Joeramsay: have a nice trip!
