They are not somuch large because they are full of ice, but happen to be large caves thataccumulate a lot ofice; and the size ofany individual cave depends on awhole (hole? -sorry!) range of geological, hydrological and climatic factors specidif to that cave and its location.

Caves caused by volcanic activity are made of basalt Caves caused by dissolution due to groundwater are formed in limestone or sometimes marble. Caves also form in glacial ice due to melting. (Glacial ice can technically be considered rock.)
Glacio-speleology is the study of caves within glaciers. It involves exploration and research focused on understanding the formation, structure, and dynamics of glacier caves, as well as their unique ice formations and processes. This field helps researchers gain insights into glacier behavior and climate change impacts.
Caves can also be created by underground water erosion, where water dissolves and carries away rock to form caves in limestone and other soluble bedrock. Additionally, caves can be formed through volcanic activity, such as lava caves formed from flowing lava, or glacier caves created by melting ice in glaciers.
World's largest ice cave presently known is in Austria: the Eisriesenwelt. It's a normal limestone cave with >42km of known passages, many richly decorated with lovely ice layers and formations. Show-cave in parts.

True ice-caves develop under glaciers. Some high-altitude caves like the Eisreisenwelt are described loosely as ice-caves thanks to major ice deposits within them, but they are still caves formed within rock. The ice is merely coating the walls and roofs.
Tom Swift in the Caves of Ice has 200 pages.
In the ice caves between Mudskipper Point and Port Sarim. There is a trap door there. It is very easy to get lost in the caves, so remember to bring good food, and also the way you came so you don't have to teleport!
There are ice caves south of Port Sarim. There is a dungeon entrance a little north of Mudskipper's point, and when you enter it, you must follow the tunnel and you will find the ice caves. You will pass muggers, pirates, and hobgoblins and then will enter a cave with ice giants and blurite mining rocks.

No. Polar bears really don't live in caves, they live out on the sea ice.

The world's smallest ice caves are believed to be found in the Eisriesenwelt cavern in Austria. The caves are known for their intricate ice formations and tunnels, making them a popular tourist attraction despite their small size.
