Klimapark 2469 — Local services in Lom

Absolutely impressive area that at first glance resembles a lunar landscape. At second glance, you can discover a lot here at an altitude of 1,860 m. We had booked the 12:00 tour to the ice tunnel. The tour is great! On the approximately 1km long path to the ice tunnel, our guide Emma made several stops and told us the history and importance of the climate park with a lot of charm and enthusiasm. What the measuring stations do, which plants live at this altitude, how the soils are brought to life and why this is possible. The tour and the ice tunnel are a very special experience. There is enough time to look around and enjoy, what might be not possible anymore in just a few years.

The tour is well suited for older children. We were here with our 6 year old. With a lot of motivation from us, it worked quite well, but since she doesn't speak English and it was raining a bit, the initial enthusiasm quickly disappeared with each stop on our way...

Our visit to Klimapark was an extraordinary experience. From the moment we arrived, we were immersed in the wonders of Norwegian wildlife. The insights into lichens and the fact that they are ecosystems themselves were fascinating, and learning about permafrost and its crucial importance was enlightening. This experience heightens awareness of the perils of climate change.

A significant part of our memorable visit was our guide, Katinka. Her extensive knowledge, engaging storytelling, and warm personality made the tour both educational and enjoyable. Katinka's ability to blend humor with important information kept us captivated throughout the visit. Her kindness and sympathy added a personal touch that made us feel truly welcome.

And it finishes with the amazing tunnel, a truly...

Our guide Kathnika(apologies if I have misspelled) was enthusiastic. She gave demonstrations wherever possible, and this helped me understand the concepts e.g.: the polygonal hole softening and the Gabro Vs Feldspar stone sounds. I learned the crucial role played by the permafrost layers.

I appreciate the fact that organizers have dedicated more time to the outdoor specimens than the cave.

While I was impressed by the cave's creation history, it's not much there from a learning perspective. They can add some more technical information about the cave's current maintenance or if it is used for any experiments or so on.

I highly...
