Glacier Skiing Area in Styria - Dachstein Glacier

A fascinating cable car ride takes only a few minutes to cover the 1,000 vertical ascent (without pylons) against the majestic backdrop of the Dachstein southern wall up to the year-round skiing area on the Dachstein glacier at 2,700 m above sea level.

Access is from Schladming in the Enns Valley by bus (regular services from Schladming railway station) or by car up a well-constructed mountain road to the 18km wide Ramsau Plateau (1,100 – 1,300 metres) and on via the Dachstein Panorama Road to the valley station of the glacier railway at Türlwandhütte (1,700 metres).

The Hunerkogel top station houses a modern self-service restaurant and ranks as one of the finest panorama points in the Eastern Alps.
On the Dachstein glacier: three T-bars and a double chairlift serve the skiing area (where there are no crevasses). These slopes are also suitable for beginners. International cross-country skiing summer training centre with some fifteen kilometres of groomed and marked trails as well as a snowboard Funpark are at the sportsmen's disposal. Numerous ski touring routes possible!
