Abisko – Cave adventure

The caves Kåppasjokk is one of Sweden’s longest cave systems, with winding passages and tunnels that stretch deep into the bedrock. Join us for an exciting adventure in this fascinating world underground!

Nestled beside a mountain stream, not far from Abisko, lies this impressive cave system shaped by the forces of nature. We pack the car and drive a few kilometers before starting an easy hike of approximately 2 kilometers up to the cave entrance, Kåppashåla. Once there, we change into overalls, helmets, and headlamps before descending into the underground.

The cave system offers two entrances, we begin with the larger passage, where winding corridors alternate with open chambers and stunning formations. For the more adventurous, there is also an option to explore the second cave, which is more physically demanding with narrow passages, a short climbing section, and tunnels that require crawling.

This experience offers both curiosity and wonder, letting you discover a side of nature that few ever get to see and one you won’t soon forget!
