Description

Setergrotta is part show cave, as it is closed with regular opening times and fee. But it is not really a developed cave, there is no light or paths. The visitors are furnished with helmets, head lamps, oversuits, gloves and rubber boots. The tours are rather strenuous cave trekking tours, recommended only for the physical fit.
