Fox Glacier

This popular and spectacular fly-in, fly-out Flying Fox gives you the once in a lifetime opportunity to get up close and personal to the remarkable beauty of the Fox Glacier, by helicopter and on foot!

This ice is a typical oceanic glacier! The prevailing westerly winds bring ocean vapor over to form topographic precipitation, and then form. I didn't have the courage to walk past, but I could only get on the plane with tears and teeth.

Worth going to the wonderland, lamenting the ghostly work of nature,

When you come to New Zealand, you must choose a glacier for hiking. Unlike the glaciers in other parts of the world, all the glaciers in New Zealand have excellent natural conditions for people to hike and enjoy. We ordered a helicopter tour and a glacier hike in advance on Ctrip. We must make a reservation in advance. If we do, there will probably be no space available. The glacier itself is so magnificent that you must not miss it.

Fox Glacier is 13 kilometers long and slopes down 2600 meters from Southern Alps in the South Alps. Four alpine glaciers accumulate snow about 30 meters deep each year and inject it into Fox Glacier. Snow compresses into blue snow hundreds of meters deep at the top of the glacier, slides down the mountain to the valley below, and falls on ice 300 meters thick. The pressure between the glacier and the steep canyon soil causes part of the snow to melt, providing lubrication for this movement.

Two glaciers on the west coast of New Zealand's South Island have hiking programs. It is said that Fox Glacier is bigger than Franz Glacier, so if you can book Fox, you should choose the former. The glacier hikes first by helicopter and then by a leader. The half-day project will take about 2 hours to walk, not very tired.
