Awarded for the cable car

The Dachstein Krippenstein cable car in Obertraun on Lake Hallstatt has been awarded as one of the best Austrian summer mountain ranges. By fulfilling 160 criteria, the Dachstein Krippenstein has been certified as one of the best Austrian summer mountain railways. The seal of approval is a promise of quality to the guests and the region. The Dachstein Krippenstein was able to convince with innovative offers such as the Dachstein Giant Ice Cave, the Mammoth Cave, the 5fingers viewing platform and the World Heritage Spiral.

The seal of approval is an initiative of the Association of Cable Cars of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce and has stood for quality, cooperation and the sustainable development of the alpine mountain summer for over 20 years. Only those mountain railways that guarantee their guests innovative and carefree nature experiences on the mountain through a variety of offers are awarded. The Dachstein Krippenstein was particularly convincing in the category Panorama & Nature Experience.
