Yesterday's crag: in . Freyr is the largest crag in Belgium with more than 600 routes graded from 3a all the way up to 8c+.
These limestone cliffs (up to 120m high!) bordering the river have been climbed since 1930. As a consequence the holds on popular routes are very polished. Bolt distances can be large too, so climbing here requires both physical and mental strength.
That said: Freyr is a beautiful, almost magical place.

A long while ago, I wrote a song for the real reason for the season. It's called, "There's a Little Man Who's Very Glad to See You In the Tree," and is about the oldest depiction of Santa Claus: the ithyphallic Freyr.
