The cave's 150- metre-long walkway branches out in several directions and descends 20 metres below the surface of the glacier. The hazy atmosphere is the result of tiny air pockets in the ice, and the blue colour is caused by the refraction of light. The temperature inside the cave remains a frosty -1.5˚C. Entry to the glacier cave is free of charge. www.titlis.ch/en ENGELBERG-TITLIS TOURISMUS WINTER 2018/2019 SNOWSHOE TRAIL AT TRÜBSEE Leave your tracks in fresh powder snow while marvelling at the im- posing mountain backdrop with its highest peak, the Titlis.
