Ice caves are natural formations found in glaciers or in areas with permafrost. They are created when meltwater flows through the ice, carving out tunnels and chambers. The temperature inside these caves remains below freezing, allowing ice to persist even during warmer months. These caves can be found in various locations around the world, including the Alps, Rocky Mountains, and Iceland. Ice caves often feature stunning ice formations, such as icicles and frozen waterfalls, making them popular destinations for adventurers and photographers. They also provide unique ecosystems for certain species of plants and animals.
