Cave diving exploration of Swedens longest underwater cave system in the freezing mountains of Jämtland
Welcome to Expedition Bjurälven. During late winter every year the exploration of Swedens longest underwater cave takes place. Follow us on Facebook for updates!
Four kilometers from the nearest road the Bjurälven basecamp is set up at the lower cave entrance called "Dolinsjön".
450 meters inside the mountain the divers need to pass one of the first dry parts, walking 100 meters to reach next water filled tunnel
Thanks to our radio expert we have developed a beacon system to pinpoint our location inside the cave, we can then get a surface position with high precision GPS
