One of the coolest resorts to stay in for one night, Iglu-Dorf

If you are looking for something special to surprise your partner who loves skiing, look no further, Iglu-Dorf is the place you need. On the Zugspitze you find the small hotel completely made out of snow and ice. When you wake up in the morning you are directly on the slopes and you don’t have to get off the mountain in the evening. You stay there on the mountain, far away from the normal world. The Iglus have ice carvings as art and you sleep improvised ice beds. Each evening there is a fondue, you have a bar, and there is even a Jacuzzi. What are you waiting for.

Als je zoekt naar iets uitzonderlijk om je partner die van skiën houdt te verrassen, is Iglu-Dorf zeker iets voor u. Dit klein hotel op de Zugspitze is volledig gemaakt uit ijs en sneeuw. Wanneer je ’s morgens wakker wordt kan je rechtstreeks de berg afskiën, ’s avond moet je niet naar beneden met de lift. Je blijft op de berg, ver weg van de bewoonde wereld. De Iglo's hebben ijssculpturen als kunst en je slaapt op geïmproviseerde ijsbedden. Iedere avond kan je er van een fondue genieten, er is een bar en zelfs een Jacuzzi. Waar wacht je nog op..

  7. Had only seen ice hotels in TV report, but not in photos. Tell me something, and you can be warm or cold it is? The photos are amazing.

  9. I loved these photos (esp the hallway)! Did you & Kristel spend the night? I keep thinking of her in her beautiful red gown, shivering in the cold. I read of this place last year in a nonfiction book about sleep habits.

  16. inderdaad een apart hotel. Ik dacht dat een ijshotel alleen maar in Lapland bestaat. Ik heb er een reportage over gezien. Ik was eens in een "zouthotel" op de zoutvlakte in Bolivia. Groetjes Dietmut
