Obertraun, Alpine municipality in Salzkammergut, Austria.

Located at the foot of Dachstein mountain, Obertraun extends along the Hallstätter See lake with mountains rising on both sides of the valley.

The settlement originated from woodcutters and farmers, becoming an autonomous town in 1921 after separating from the administration of Hallstatt.

The municipality maintains traditional Alpine customs through seasonal festivals and community gatherings that celebrate local heritage and mountain life.

The Dachstein cable car provides access to mountain caves, hiking paths, and skiing areas throughout different seasons of the year.

The Freesports Arena Krippenstein features 30 kilometers of unmarked skiing routes and multiple snowshoe trails across natural mountain terrain.
