Hanshelleren Cave, Sport climbing area in Flatanger, Norway.
The limestone walls of Hanshelleren Cave extend over 40 meters high, featuring numerous routes with varying degrees of difficulty for sport climbing enthusiasts.
Archaeological excavations revealed that early inhabitants of the region utilized the cave for shelter during the prehistoric period in Norway's Trøndelag region.
The cave has transformed into an international meeting point where climbers from different countries share techniques and establish new climbing routes throughout the year.
Visitors need to bring an 80-meter rope and contact the local landowner before accessing the cave through a marked 20-minute walking path from Strom.
The cave contains the route 'Change,' which extends two-thirds toward the lip and represents one of the most technical climbing challenges in Scandinavia.
