Description
Susiluola -Wolf cave
Entrance to Wolf Cave, taken by Janne Heinonen on 13th May 2010. The entrance is kept locked to protect it, although guided tours can be arranged by contacting the Wolf Cave Tourist Centre.


The upper part of the crack has been packed with soil, forming a cave. In 1996, some objects were found in the cave that brought about speculations that it could have been inhabited in the Paleolithic, 120,000 to 130,000 years ago. These objects, if authentic, would be the only known Neanderthal artifacts in the Nordic countries.
