A high pressure on the 127 meter high antenna tower, when it climbed over a hundred people during the summer. Now they are also investing in activities for the younger ones, a few meters down the ground.


In order to pay attention to the old mastworkers' everyday life on the Radio Station and the World Heritage Grimeton, they gave up thumbs for climbing in the masts in the early summer. Something that became a success.

- We knew there was a demand for climbing in the masts. However, we could not say that the pressure would be so great. It has been absolutely fantastic, says Annika Lindhe, development manager at Grimeton Radiostation.

Obstacle course for young people should attract interest

The climbing events of the radio mast were quickly booked by families and families. To get to the top, you have to be 13 years for safety reasons.

Those who are younger than this have therefore had fun on the ground by participating in various story-related scenarios. Ahead of the next season, it has now also been decided to build an obstacle course.

- We hope it will be challenging and educational. We hope that the children will have an interest in the World Heritage so that they can in turn manage it and continue it when we no longer do so, says Annika Lindhe, development manager at Grimeton Radio Station.
