Brufjell Caves
Highlight • Cave
From the Brufjell summit, you can descend to Brufjellhålene. The path is very steep and exposed. Steel steps and steel cables have been installed for climbing the steepest sections (a short via ferrata without safety equipment). Nevertheless, this section is dangerous, especially in wet conditions and with improper footwear! Dogs cannot negotiate this route.
Don't be too tempted by the cave photos; some visitors are disappointed because the caves are smaller than they appear in the photos. The real attraction are the eroded rock formations directly above the surf.
