Dachsteinsüdwandbahn, Cable car system in Ramsau am Dachstein, Austria
The Dachsteinsüdwandbahn carries visitors to an elevation of 2,700 meters through a glass-enclosed gondola that accommodates 50 passengers during each journey.
The cable car system, inaugurated in 1969, transformed the Dachstein glacier into an accessible destination and underwent complete renovation of its mountain station.
The mountain station houses an Ice Palace containing exhibitions of frozen sculptures and educational displays about Alpine geology and glacial formations.
Operating from May to November, the gondola system includes facilities for electric vehicle charging and requires advance booking with fees starting at 59.50 euros.
The cable car terminal integrates photovoltaic panels that generate 80 percent of its energy needs, making it a leading example of sustainable mountain infrastructure.
