Caught cold – the amazing glacier cave on the Kaunertal Glacier
Anyone looking to cool off in the hot summer will find refreshing mountain air and ice-cold glacier ice on the Kaunertal Glacier due to its altitude!
Deep inside the glacier lies a fascinating natural wonder: our glacier cave. Even though it cannot be entered for safety reasons, it is still worth taking a look. The impressive ice structure, formed by thousands of years of glacier movement, shimmers in shades of blue and takes on bizarre shapes. It is a unique place that impressively showcases the power and beauty of nature.

100-year-old-ice!
There is something unique about walking through the glacier cave, feeling the glacier ice and watching the play of light in the different shades of blue. Here you can see ice that is at least 100 years old, which has flowed over the years from the Weißseeferner’s nutrient zone to the area of the glacier tongue.
