From here it actually goes further into the karst landscape. The water at the bottom of the stairs was so high that we couldn't get over the river. On the other side it goes up the stairs again and on.

July 7, 2025,🇸🇪 Collosseum am Bjurälven
This tour led us along wooden plank paths to a waterfall. We then hiked along a river that continued underground several times. At the end, a valley opened up, nicknamed the "Collosseum" because of its resemblance to an amphitheater.

Showing Translation

The river Bjurälven disappears underground several times and reappears in other places.

Unfortunately, the access road is closed at 3 p.m., so I couldn't do the whole hike. The stream runs underground from Dolinsjö to Bjurälvgrottan.
