  • Enjoy a scenic bus tour that includes a trip around Molde, the so-called ‘City of Roses’.

  • Explore the Bergtatt marble and limestone mine alongside experienced guides.

  • Sail in rafts on a crystal-clear lake and sample the pure spring water.

  • See the underground restaurant and try a local dish in this unique setting.

Traveling from Kristiansund, our guides will meet us at Bergtatt and supply us with the necessary gear and give us a safety demonstration. Then, it’s on to an unforgettable journey into the enchanting marble caves.

Mining operations have been taking place here since 1938 and are still going on in other parts of the mountain.

We’ll head to the heart of the mountain and board rafts on the illuminated crystal-clear lake. As we glide along the calm water, we’ll stop to get a taste of the pure water that springs from the rock wall.

Then, our guides will lead us to the Grand Hall for a unique subterranean dining experience. Seated at the candlelit tables, you’ll feast on a warming meat and vegetable stew made from local ingredients. In this magical atmosphere, we’ll watch a fascinating film about the marble mine.

After emerging from our underground adventure, we’ll board the bus and enjoy a short tour of Molde.
