Dachstein Glacier

2,700 metres – that's how high Styria's Dachstein glacier rises above sea level. A day on the glacier is anything but bland: An ascent on the panoramic cable car, the view from the unique Sky Walk, and then the extraordinary ice figures in the Ice Palace. Thrills are also guaranteed: the suspension bridge and the stairway will make an impression even on height lovers! Included with the Sommercard from a 2-night-stay. In summer, a gondola seat should be reserved in advance!
