O
Rýchle fakty: The glacier covers 250 square kilometers and is up to 70 meters thick. It is one of the few glaciers that continues to grow. Every few years, massive chunks of ice crash into the lake, creating a thunderous roar that shakes the surface.
Zaujímavosti: Visitors can watch up close as huge blocks of ice plunge into the lake during violent glacier collapses, creating giant splashes. In the crisp air, the deep blue cracks of the glacier look like natural works of art, captivating all who see them.
Insiderské tipy
- Wear waterproof and warm clothing because it is windy and damp.
- It is recommended to take photos of the glacier cracks’ unique textures from the middle part of the trail.
- Avoid the midday crowd peak. Early morning or late afternoon is quieter.
- Do not miss the glacier’s cracking sounds. The best viewing spot is near the main lookout.
