In winter, when temperatures drop below zero, the structure is adorned with snow and majestic stalactites of translucent white ice.
The Flaine Art Centre organises a free guided tour of the resort every Tuesday at 2pm (in winter and summer, registration required).
Follow the director of the Art Centre through the twists and turns of Flaine, in pursuit of the History of Flaine and its little stories too...
The ice fountain is one of the buildings featured on this tour.
