What to expect

Trollegater naturreservat is a nature reserve with one of Sweden's largest systems of urbergsgrottor, or cave systems. The main cave has a passage over 100 meters long, with varying heights and narrow passages that require crawling. The reserve also features several smaller caves and holes, as well as broad and long rock crevices. Visitors can explore the caves on their own or take a guided tour. The area is suitable for families, but parents should be aware that the caves can be dark and narrow, and some passages may require children to crawl. It is recommended to bring flashlights, warm clothing, and sturdy shoes. The reserve offers a unique and exciting experience for families to discover together

Trollegater nature reserve in Östergötland: troll caves and beautiful nature

Trollegater nature reserve in Östergötland: troll caves and beautiful nature
This family's experience:

Activities: We spent about two hours at the Trollegater naturreservat. We explored troll caves and beautiful hiking trails. Tommy and Felix, who know the area well, guided us through the caves. We used headlamps and sturdy shoes. The children crawled, wriggled, jumped, and crept through the visit

Highlights: The children thought it was "Very cool, but a bit scary at first". They took on crawl spaces, larger corridors, halls and narrow passages. We heard myths and stories about the trolls. The Stora Grottan, one of Sweden's largest bedrock caves, was a highlight ✨
