The **panoramic lift** and bridge continue to the **restaurant** and **viewing platform**. The free-floating **skywalk** is 360 meters above the UNESCO World Heritage town of **[Hallstatt](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/en/hallstatt.html?utm_source=tourdata&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=tourdata)** and offers the unique world heritage view of the historic town center, the lake and the **[Dachstein Salzkammergut](http://www.dachstein-salzkammergut.at/en?utm_source=tourdata&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=tourdata)** region. Alternatively, an old miner's path leads up the 300 meters in altitude. Walking time approx. one hour. Good condition required!
