The Brufjell Holes were likely carved out of the rock by the surf before the coastline rose after the last Ice Age. A rare natural phenomenon!

From the Brufjell summit, you can descend to Brufjellhålene. The path is very steep and exposed. Steel steps and steel cables have been installed for climbing the steepest sections (a short via ferrata without safety equipment). Nevertheless, this section is dangerous, especially in wet conditions and with improper footwear! Dogs cannot negotiate this route.

Don't be too tempted by the cave photos; some visitors are disappointed because the caves are smaller than they appear in the photos. The real attraction are the eroded rock formations directly above the surf.

A journey into adventure land, the descent is a dare.
Sure-footed shoes and a head for heights are a must.
You will be rewarded with one of the coolest photo motifs in the world.

We wanted to take our little dog with us in a backpack. He knows that. He's very fearless. After the comments we left it... Luckily. No dog or child should have to do this. As mentioned, the caves are very small. Extraordinary yes, but the descent is more of a highlight. mmm
