Nigardsbreen — Attraction in Luster

I’ve always loved visiting this area and have brought friends here more than once to share its incredible beauty. deffinatly, this place deserves 10 stars. Unfortunately, this time the experience was deeply disappointing and upsetting.

Personally, i found this to be one of my most favoured experiences on the glacier. Trees were unrooted in the surrounding area, the boatman and various guides said they've never experienced anything like this...
