    Hiking

    Real glacier pots are not, rather, traces of the former mining on the Iberg.

    Hiking

    Under no circumstances should you look over the edge of the glacier, pretty deep holes 😉👌.
    Safety first 👌

    Hiking

    Another very exciting highlight. Firstly because of the highlight itself - mining traces here were misinterpreted geologically for a long time, as explained on an information board on site. Secondly, unfortunately, because of the numerous completely irrelevant and even incorrect tips and photos.
