Eisriesenwelt (Ice-Giants’ World) – the largest ice cave in the world
Another highlight that can be reached within a merely 25-minutes ride to the town Werfen is the with its incredible total length of 42 kilometers largest ice cave in the world – the Eisriesenwelt, literally translated as “Ice-Giants’ World”. Cold air is sucked into the cave. Owing to the rising temperatures in spring, the ice begins to melt, causing water to seep into the cave, eventually freezing again. Through this and other complex processes, enormous, breathtaking ice-sculpures – the “Ice Giants” – are formed.
