Hotel en Franz Josef Glacier
| Franz Josef Glacier | |||||
Franz Josef Glacier is a 12Km long glacier located in Westland National Park on the West Coast of New Zealand’s South Island. Together with the Fox Glacier 20 Km to the south, it is unique in descending from the Southern Alps to less than 300 metres above sea level. The glacier area is one of the main tourist attractions of the West Coast, with around 250,000 visitors a year. As the walking part of any tour up to the glacier takes a long time, and ends at the first icefall (a sort of frozen waterfall, showing a natural dip of the land underneath), numerous tourists book helicopter tours from one of the several local airlines, which usually drop their guests between the first and second icefall, for a guided 1-2 hour walk through the broken ground atop the glacier. Though the glacial landscape changes almost daily with the glaciers unusually fast flow, and some walks include passages through ice tunnels, they are still considered quite safe and only somewhat strenuous.
