Grønligrotta, Marble cave in Nordland, Norway

The Grønligrotta cave network extends across 2 kilometers of passages, featuring formations created by limestone dissolution and underground waterways.

First explored in 1914, the cave system has undergone extensive geological development over 700,000 years through continuous ice and water action.

The cave network represents a significant part of Norway's geological heritage, drawing visitors interested in natural formations and underground exploration.

Tours through the electrically lit cave last approximately one hour, with temperatures remaining between 4 to 8 degrees Celsius throughout the year.

A granite boulder transported by ancient meltwater rests within the cave, far from its original location at the end of the last ice age.
