GLACIER MILLS
THE POTS OF THE GIANTS

Glacial Mills at
the Cavaglia Glacier Garden

Every year from May to October you can admire a unique glacial phenomenon in the Glacier Garden in Cavaglia: the glacial mills (pots of the giants) designed by the Palü Glacier. Over thousands of years, glacier water, debris and gravel have worked their way through the hard rock and ground huge holes - some of them up to 15 metres deep - into the ground. Access to the glacier mills is easy: from the Rhaetian Railway station in Cavaglia it's only a ten-minute walk. The path is signposted.
