Scărișoara Glacier Cave

The cave is located at an altitude of approximately 1,150 maSL. It is 120 m deep and 720 m long. The entrance shaft, which is 60 m in diameter and 50 m in depth, gives access through metal stairs to a large chamber, the Great Hall, which is approximately 108 m long and 78 m wide. The Great Hall includes an ice cliff nearly 18 m tall, which overlooks a pool called the Pool of Ice.
From the Great Hall, passages lead into several other named rooms: the Church, which features over 100 ice stalagmites, the Great Reservation, Coman Gallery to the left, and Little Reservation to the right.
The ice within the cave has an estimated volume of 75,000 cubic metres and in some places can be as thick as 20 m. The temperature is up to +1 °C in the summer and down to -7 °C in the winter. In the part for tourists the average temperature is around 0 °C.
