The "5fingers" viewing platform in Obertraun is one of the most spectacular viewing platforms in Austria and offers adrenaline rushes at the highest level.
This visitor attraction opened at the beginning of October, 2006. Also known as the "World Heritage View Point". Built 500 metres above ground, the viewing platform is in the shape of a hand with fingers, and protrudes from a sheer rock face.
Affording stunning panoramic views of the World Heritage region, this has become a number 1 attraction in the Dachstein Krippenstein Region. The 5fingers Viewing Platform is a pleasant 30-40 minutes walk from the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car summit station.
