Tips
The Dachstein is impressive in itself: at a height of 2,996 meters above sea level, it is the second highest peak in the northern Alps. In the Dachstein massif, it stands out with its imposing trio, which you can admire from afar. But what makes the Dachstein glacier truly impressive are the numerous options it offers its visitors.
From skiing to snowboarding, hiking to climbing or just to enjoy the mountain air - no matter when you visit the Dachstein: a trip to the region is always worthwhile.
We were up there in June 2009 in brilliant sunshine. A great experience that we can definitely recommend and will always remember fondly.
The Dachstein massif is 2,996 meters high, the glacier railway reaches up to 2,700 meters.

Anyone who has already crawled in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains can do it here. The path is well prepared, only a short section has to be overcome with iron handles and rope, the rest is upright. Even more great prospects.
