Midsummer trip in Gävle : Part 3 - Day 2: Hudiksvall, Hölick, Kuggörarna

21 June 2019

At Hudiksvall, we drove into town and I had an ice-cream. Much deserving on a hot day.





Drove on to Hölick's Nature Reserve where we explored a cave. It was a bit of a task to look for the entrance into the cave. We did not go further in as we did not have any good equipment. I got my pants very dusty and dirty from the short exploration.

Caving in Klövbergsgrottan

24 September 2017

Today, I am doing caving! My very first caving in Stockholm. I was surprised that there are caves in Stockholm. This place is in a nature reserve and located in Tyresö (pronounced as 'tee-reh-ser'). I have been to 4 caves in Malaysia (Gua Kandu, Gua Sanding, Gua Batu Maloi, Gua Tempurung) and I wanted to see how different it is in Stockholm. 

The name of the cave is Klövberg (pronounced as 'clerv-beh-ry'). Grottan means 'the cave'. It is a 300m long cave that is formed as a result of a collapsed mountain from above. 

I took the bus to Tyresö Centrum and then bus 819 towards Tyresö Brevik where we alighted at Ällmora. Walk 1300m towards Noretvägen 40 or Klövbergsgrottan. Since there was only one bus that goes there in the morning, most of the participants were in the same bus.
