Enjoy the unique panoramic view of the Dachstein Glacier from the viewing platform World Heritage View!


Panoramic view on the Dachstein

Only a few hundred metres from the mountain station of the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car is the "World Heritage View" viewing platform. The path is designed to be barrier-free and therefore easy to master even for people with disabilities and one accompanying person. At the viewing point the surrounding mountain world is explained with information boards and there is the possibility to explore the Dachstein with binoculars.


Experience a 360° panorama tour on the Dachstein Krippenstein…
