The cable car station, built in the 1950s, stands mystically surrounded by forest on a small hill slightly away from the village of **[Obertraun](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/welterberegion/obertraun.html "Zum Artikel: Obertraun.")**. In the darkness, the headlights of the cars dance like little lights through the forest and nature lovers still meet at the cable car station in the dark of night. The red fireball ---------------- Off we go and the cable car gondola slowly floats up into the air. On the horizon, mountain peak after mountain peak, dimly bathed in glowing red. Arriving at 2,100 m, you wonder why the word "dawn" exists. It is a dawn in all its shades and it gets stronger and brighter until the sun rises out of the glowing colors as a red ball of fire. The sight of the sun is so strong at this moment that you can see it even with your eyes closed. If you now turn your back on the sun and look towards the Dachstein, the view is at least as impressive. Bit by bit, the Dachstein summit, the glacier, the Dirndln, the Koppenkarstein and all the other peaks are bathed in soft light. A new day has dawned, a shimmering fleecy cloud wanders over the summit massif, followed by its small shadow. Breakfast **at the Dachstein Krippenstein mountain restaurant after sunrise** will give you all the energy you need for a wonderful day on the "Stoa"! **Tip:** One of the most beautiful hikes is the **[Heibronner Rundwanderweg](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/oesterreich-tour/detail/100311/heilbronner-rundwanderweg.html)**, which leads from the Gjaid Alm, past the [**Dachstein Hai**](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/oesterreich-poi/detail/430016189/dachstein-hai.html), back to the Krippenstein. **Meeting point** at the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car, breakfast takes place after sunrise! **Registration and information** at the **[Tourist Information Obertraun](https://dachstein.salzkammergut.at/oesterreich-poi/detail/430004028/tourismus-information-obertraun.html)**, Tel. +43 6132 26909 - 400 Surcharge with season ticket: € 29,40 **[Experience a 360° panorama tour on the Dachstein Krippenstein](http://www.dachstein-panorama.at/?s=pano68541&utm_source=tourdata&utm_medium=textlink&utm_campaign=tourdata360tour)** [ Contact ](#ttgCollapseKontakt) ---------------------------------- **Tourist office Obertraun** Nr. 180, 4831 Obertraun Phone[+43 6132 26909-400](tel:+43613226909400) E-Mail[obertraun@salzkammergut.at](#mailto) Web[www.salzkammergut.at](http://www.salzkammergut.at) book a ticket [book a ticket](https://tportal.tomas.travel/dst/offer/detail/AUT00020100014860105&gobalReset=1]?lang=de "New window") --- **Legal contact information** Salzkammergut Tourismus Marketing GmbH Salinenplatz 1 AT-4820 Bad Ischl info@salzkammergut.at http://www.salzkammergut.at --- **We speak the following languages** German English [ Event date(s) ](#ttgCollapseVeranstaltungstermine) ------------------------------------------------------ [ Event location ](#ttgCollapseVeranstaltungsorte) ---------------------------------------------------- **Dachstein Krippenstein cable car** Winkl 34, 4831 Obertraun Phone [+43 50 140](tel:+4350140) E-Mail Web [ Arrival ](#ttgCollapseAnreise) ---------------------------------- [ Prices ](#ttgCollapsePreise) -------------------------------- **General price information****Fee for adults and children:** incl. breakfast buffet in the Dachstein Krippenstein mountain restaurant and ascent and descent - **Adults:** **€ 76.80** (with season ticket **€ 29.40**) - **Children 6-15 years:** **€ 50.70** (with season ticket **€ 24.40**) - **Children 0-5 years:** free of charge [book a ticket](https://tportal.tomas.travel/dst/offer/detail/AUT00020100014860105&gobalReset=1]?lang=de "New window") [ Suitability ](#ttgCollapseEignung) -------------------------------------- - Suitable for groups - Suitable for schools - Pets allowed - Suitable for teenagers - Suitable for seniors - Suitable for single travelers - Suitable for friends - Suitable for couples - Suitable for children [ Accessibility ](#ttgCollapseBarrierefreiheit) ------------------------------------------------- Please get in touch for more information.
