Cable car under the Dachstein

The easiest way to get to the alpine world of the Dachstein massif is to take the toll road Dachsteinstraße to the cable car station and from there take the Dachstein Gondola to the Hunnerkogel mountain (2,687 m above sea level). Here you can enjoy incredible views
The Dachstein Massif from Ramsau
The starting point for this trip is the famous sports town of Ramsau am Dachstein. From here there are great views of the southern walls of the mountains. Less than four kilometers west of the city is a turn to the toll road Dachsteinstraße

Views from the lower station of the cable car
The Dachsteinstraße is only about 5.5 kilometers long and will move you half a kilometer higher to 1,678 meters above sea level. The toll is 20 Euro. At the end of the road is a large parking lot and a wonderful view of the Dachstein. If you want to save, you can also take the road by bus
