Dachsteinstraße glacier. Attraction at an altitude of 3000 meters. At the entrance there is a toll road costing 20 euros per car - when you take the cable car up, you must validate the parking ticket and then there is no 20 euro charge when you leave the road. Very large parking lot (there are several parking lots) short walk to the turn for the cable car. You must book a place in advance otherwise it is not certain that you will be able to go up (very crowded) each cable car about 45 people. For holders of a local Schladming cable car, the cable car is free. (Very high costs for a family about 57 euros per adult). About 10 minutes up to the second station, which is 2995 meters high. Very cold and there is fog around (can spoil the experience). In addition, this station has several attractions for free / for an additional fee. You can go down to the snow at the bottom, there is a 360-degree circular track (sky way) amazing views from all directions. There is a restaurant and a cafe on site (very reasonable price in a cafe). There is a large balcony for sitting (cold....) 2 additional attractions: Ice Palace + Bridge - The bridge is nice, 100 meters long, connects the points and is all in the air in a dome. Then you enter the Ice Palace, which has ice figures that are nice and pretty, but in my opinion a high cost (47 euros) for a family. On a cold day of 3 degrees, we walked around the entire upper part for about 2 hours+ and...

Up there, you will see breathtaking views, i was speechless. The suspended bridge is really strurdy it doesn't move at all. I didn't see any water refill station up there. There's a restaurant and boutique at the top. I would 100% recommend, worth...
