Marble Castle 8615 Skonseng, Norway Last Updated: 09/29/2023 | |
Experience a fairytale landscape of carved marble near the town of Mo i Rana. The amazing natural marble formations know as Marmorslottet – the marble castle, has taken the river thousands of years to carve out. The trail has steep, challenging sections that can be difficult to get by when the terrain is wet. | |
The amazing marble formations of Marmorslottet took thousands of years to create. Over the years, the river gradually washed away the softer limestone and then far more slowly carved potholes, giant’s cauldrons, caves and other strange sculptural forms in the underlying harder marble. As a result Marmorslottet is a very special place to visit. With your own eyes you can sense how water and ice, sometimes using sand or gravel as an abrasive, shaped the hard marble a fraction of a millimetre at a time. |
