Season
Caving is an all year roumd activity in Northern Norway. Just as perfect in winter time as summer. May be even better in winter time because Nordland has so many other great outdoor adventures in summer than going under the under the surface.

Caving in Northern Norway

Nordland is the area in Scandinavia with the best possibilities to do caving. From Bodo you find caves both for beginners and if you are looking for a more thrilling experience. Best of all; no matter what weather or season!

If you want to join a guided adventure underground trip, we offer caving adventure including both walking, crawling and abseiling. Caving is a year-round adventure for both novice and experienced cavers.

No prior caving experience is required for these trips; however, participants should be reasonably fit. Anyone with some hiking experience will do fine.

From beautiful limestone formations to deep caving systems, Nordland has underground adventures for all interests.

Caves are dark, mysterious and challenging. Most of the caves in Norway are "wild" caves and have not been developed in any way. They are the same temperature (above freezing) all year round, and feel cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
