Top 9 Caves グルントルゼーでの

The Koppenbrüller Cave impresses with its rushing water and mysterious passages. After the heavy rains of the last nine days, the spectacle was particularly impressive and mystical."

"The water-bearing Koppenbrüller Cave is located in the valley and can be reached by a short walk along the Koppentraun. Marvel at the stalactites that are thousands of years old and listen to the roar of the invisible stream inside the mountain. A visit to the Koppenbrüller Cave, the youngest of the three Dachstein caves, gives you impressive insights into the underground waterways of the Dachstein interior. When the snow melts and after heavy rainfall, the Koppenbrüller Cave offers a unique natural spectacle that you can walk through completely safely during the guided tours. The water roars its way through the mountain, so it is not surprising that myths surround this cave." https://www.dachstein-salzkammergut.com/de/sommer/unterirdisch/koppenbruellerhoehle

Water droplets form the snow. Very beautiful!

This "snow hole" got its name because people used to melt snow there in large copper kettles to water the cows. Most alpine pastures in the Totes Gebirge (hence the name) don't have their own water sources, and the dairymaids used to help themselves by collecting rainwater in large tubs. In dry summers, they melted snow and used mountain pines as firewood. The last time snow was melted this way was in 1937. http://stodertalfreunde.blogspot.com/2013/06/schneeofen-auf-der-ho.html

You learn a lot about salt mining. However, the time towards the end of World War II is steeped in history. At that time, looted art was stored in the tunnel and saved from irretrievable destruction by a few courageous men. Impressive and fascinating.

Good shoes are a must.
