A temporary, man-made ice cave
For over 20 years, the ice cave has been created artificially every year. Mountain guides came up with the idea of building this cave using an air-filled tunnel; the structure is then deflated after being covered in snow. The cave is created at the start of the season and remains open throughout the winter until the ski resort closes in April. Each year, the theme set for the artists to create their sculptures is different: the Himalayas (2018), the funfair (2019), farm animals (2020)…
