Description

The hike to the cave goes through the Jätturn Nature Reserve and follows trails through mighty forests with rocky outcrops, meadows and beautiful lakes.

The cave has been formed by weathering in the limestone. The walls of the cave are carved with initials, the oldest of which date from the 17th century.

There is a boat in the lake (during the summer) that everyone can borrow, so that you can row over and into the cave.

Just be careful, bring your own life jacket and moor the boat properly afterwards.

Trevlig utflykt. 3 km promenad till grottan om man parkerar vid skylten "Här slutar allmän väg". Det finns även några parkeringsplatser om man fortsätter ytterligare 1 km.
