This small collection of climbs is situated to the south of the approach path to Butter Arms and the camping area. The 'Demonstranten' (demonstaration) routes are many folks first contact with rock climbing since they have always been popular with the local climbing schools. Approach - Branch left from the main path shortly after the marshy area. Head across undulating ground until the twin cracks of Demonstranten appear down on the right in a steep gully. Kveldskosen is further down the same gully. The exact whereabouts of Rått kjøtt remains a bit of a mystery though!

The disappearing crack in the wall has fierce moves where it end to reach a ledge. Move out right then back left to finish.

16m. The steep crack on the right is accessed from a convenient boulder and gives a short pumpy tussle.
