I recommend reserving the tickets online. It has a couple of advantages. You can park above with online tickets, otherwise you will be taken from the parking lot below with a shuttle to the top.

With the Eisriesenwelt ticket you get a 20% discount on entry to Hohenwerfen Castle with the falconry (flight demonstration)
