Borrås skåra, Natural gorge in Åkraberg, Sweden.
The narrow gorge extends for 330 feet in length, reaching depths of 33 feet with walls rising vertically on both sides of the formation.
The geological feature formed during the Ice Age when flowing water from inland ice sheets carved through the bedrock, creating this deep crevice.
Local residents connected with the gorge through tales about a silk thread holding a suspended boulder, which would fall when the last person passes beneath.
Visitors can access the gorge via a marked trail from the designated parking area near Värö Church, following signs through the woodland.
A massive boulder remains wedged between the gorge walls approximately five feet above ground level, creating an unusual natural gateway.
