In summer, the Dachstein Krippenstein in the UNESCO World Heritage region Salzkammergut offers everything your heart desires and promises days full of nature experiences and lasting memories. The number 1 excursion destination in the Salzkammergut enchants the whole family: cave world (Giant Ice Cave, Mammut & Koppenbrüller Cave), viewing platforms (5fingers, World Heritage spiral), attractions such as the Dachstein shark and the wonderful hiking opportunities on the Dachstein Plateau.
In winter, Days of Freedom are program on the Dachstein Krippenstein - everything goes: ski and board, on and off piste, freeride training and snow camps, snowshoeing, ski tours, ice climbing, paragliding. Or maybe you'd rather relax (or party hard) in one of the cozy huts and lodges.
