Dachstein Cave World

Dachstein Cave World and its three natural show caves rank among the most significant natural monuments of Austria and have celebrated the centenary of their discovery in 2010.

The Facts

This cave world accommodates a unique ensemble of natural caves -featuring diverse stages of development and shapes - in a localised and easy accessible area.

The most important tourist highlight of Dachstein Cave World is Giant Ice Cave which attracts 150.000 visitors per year.  Trained nature & landscape guides conduct the visitors through underground chambers where the ice depth partly attains up to 25m.

Mammut Cave is less icy yet not less interesting. It was the great total length of underground passages and chambers which gave this cave system its name. At present, 70 km of passageways of this intricate cave system are explored. Via guided tours on easily accessible paved walkways, visitors are introduced to formation and exploration of cave systems.

Koppenbrüller Cave, geologically the youngest
of the three caves, is located in the valley close to the town of Obertraun. It is the only one amongst
Dachstein caves which is still traversed by underground streams. Particularly during spring thaw and heavy rainfall periods this cave features an unrivalled natural spectacle.
