At the end of the tour, you will have some free time where you have the option to order a shot from the Ice Bar (additional fee), served in a glass made from ice.

The season’s coolest experience starts with a guided tour of our ice storage facilities, where the temperature is always below 0°. In the facilities cooled by solar energy, the artists work on their sculptures, and the huge ice cubes lifted from the lake the previous winter are stored. On the tour, guests learn interesting facts about ice and snow sculpting as work and as a form of art.

Then it's time to try your own skills in the ice sculpting workshop led by our expert guide. In the workshop, everyone gets their own ice cube and learns to use ice carving tools.

Those who participate in the workshop are also involved in building a new Snow Hotel: the unique works sculpted by our guests will be displayed in the Arctic SnowHotel for the following season!
