The Freesports Arena Dachstein Krippenstein has been voted the hot spot of the freerider scene by SnowPlanet magazine! Not only the runs and cliff drops were convincing, but also the exciting outdoor program. The guaranteed snow in the Dachstein region and modern snow-making facilities guarantee fun on skis and boards: "on piste" on 11 km - the longest run in Upper Austria, "off piste" with 30 km of deep snow variants, freeride training and snow camps. The webcams in Obertraun show you the current conditions in the ski area and information on open lifts and pistes. In addition to skiing and snowboarding, ski tours, snowshoe hikes and ice climbing provide additional winter adventures. Spectacular extreme sports events with professionals are offered as entertainment. After an active day, cozy huts and lodges invite you to relax.
Caves made of rock and ice, great hiking trails, spectacular viewing platforms, unique events and all this against the backdrop of Upper Austria's highest peak - the Dachstein! A highlight are guided tours through the three large show caves, which can be easily reached on foot or with the Dachstein-Krippenstein cable car in just a few minutes: The ice cave fascinates with bizarre ice sculptures, which have been effectively staged by numerous artistic installations and with Austria's "coldest concert hall". Guided tours of the Mammut Cave tell you all about the history of its creation and the exploration of the almost 70-kilometer-long labyrinths and huge cathedrals. In the valley, near the Koppenwinkel natural jewel, you will find the Koppenbrüller Cave - a still active cave that is particularly fascinating due to its rushing cave stream. Trekking tours are offered in both the Mammut Cave and the Koppenbrüller Cave, where the labyrinthine cave passages can be explored off the beaten track.
For nature lovers, the Krippenstein offers sunny hiking trails and spectacular viewing platforms: the WeltNATURerbeblick, from which you have a magnificent view of the Hohe Dachstein, the famous "5fingers" with a fantastic view of Hallstatt and the Inner Salzkammergut at dizzying heights or the "World Heritage Spiral", from which you can relax on loungers and enjoy the panorama of the surrounding peaks. Of course, hiking holidaymakers on the Dachstein also have the opportunity to explore one of the adventure hiking trails, such as the "Heilbronner Rundwanderweg", or to climb the surrounding mountains on their own.
