Review & FAQ:
Sometimes known as the "three-state mountain," Hoher Dachstein is situated at the border of Upper Austria, Styria, and Salzburg and is the second-highest mountain in the Northern Limestone Alps. At 2,995 meters high, the top of the mountain offers panoramic views over the peaks of the Alps that extend as far as the Czech Republic and Slovenia. The mountain is very popular with rock climbers, but there are plenty of things for non-climbers to do as well, including the suspension bridge, the Skywalk viewing platform, the enchanting Ice Palace, and the breathtaking Stairway to Nothingness, which ends on a vertigo-inducing glass platform.
