Mímisbrunnr Klimapark 2469
Klimapark 2469
An ice cave in a glacier beside Juvasshytta, where you can walk into ice that is thousands of years old and learn about glacier archaeology and climate change.
The Klimapark sits beside the Juvfonna glacier at an altitude of about 1,850 metres. An artificially carved ice tunnel leads into the ice, where you can see layers up to about 6,000 years old. Replicas of archaeological artefacts found as the glacier melted, such as reindeer hunting tools, are also on display. Visits are by guided tour only. The tour takes about 1.5 hours, tickets must be purchased, and there are several sessions each day in summer. Drive from the Bøverdal valley along the toll road up to Juvasshytta. It is often arranged together with a guided glacier tour of Galdhøpiggen.
