Skywalk

The Passerelle du ciel is a scenic viewpoint in Ramsau am Dachstein built on a sturdy structure with gently curving pathways across the mountain terrain. From this spot, visitors see the surrounding peaks and valleys spread out in all directions, offering wide panoramic views of the alpine landscape.

Ramsau am Dachstein has a long history as a center for mountain activities and alpine traditions. The Passerelle du ciel was later developed to give visitors an easy way to experience the alpine landscape and connect with the region's deep relationship with mountain life.

The name Passerelle du ciel means bridge to the sky, reflecting its role as a link between visitors and the vast mountain landscape. It serves as a gathering place where travelers connect with the alpine region's culture and centuries-old relationship with the mountains.

The parking area has a sandy surface and is free to use, though the access road to reach it requires a toll that can be paid at the mountain station. Visit on clear days during late morning or early afternoon when mountain peaks stand out sharply and visibility is best.

This spot offers a direct view of a 250-meter cliff face of the glacier, giving it a striking sense of height and exposure. Visitors often report a powerful feeling of standing at the edge of the world, enhanced by the open platform and the dramatic drop below.
