Questions and Answers

We've gathered common questions our guests ask, so it's even easier for you to find the information you're looking for.

Auto-belay

We have auto-belay! That means you can come and climb at Høyt Under Taket in Skien without any prior knowledge of belaying on a climbing wall. It's easy to get started even if you're a beginner.

A short instruction will be given before you start climbing. Then you just clip onto the auto-belay before you start climbing the walls. The weight limit is 10 kg – 120 kg.

All our auto-belays follow fixed service intervals and are checked every single morning before we open.
