Eisriesenwelt Ice Cave
 |
Eisriesenwelt is a natural limestone ice cave located in Werfen, Austria that covers 30,000 square miles. In the winter cool air from the outside keeps the ice cool and in the summer cold air from within performs the same function in reverse. The web site for this “World of the Ice Giants” has a nice photo gallery of the mountain range and the various ice structures located inside the cave. The cave is open to visitation between the months of May and October every year and has an annual visitation of 200,000 tourists. |
