About this photo

The journey to Briksdal Glacier in Jostedalsbreen National Park, Norway, goes past stunning landscapes and waterfalls. When you reach the glacier itself, a frozen cascade of ice hangs above the green waters of the glacier lake. It is currently part of the Jostedalbreen Glacier. However rising temperatures mean the glacier is shrinking. It is also at risk from disconnecting from the larger glacier.
