  • Absolutely stunning views on the lake and the surrounding mountain peaks. The 'panoramic' hike from the cable car (mountain) station to the 5 fingers is perfectly doable for most people and offers...

  • A cool platform which is easily accessible for all. But good shoes are mandatory for all. The view is really nice and a good Foto location

  • Visitors can experience the most Elegant, charming view point with an elevation of around 2100 meters. To get to 5 Fingers from Dachstein need to take cable car 🚡 which costs around 40 euros and the ride will be thrilling, It will take 3 hours to cover this view point and surroundings. All in all, taking some pictures gonna be happy moments.
  • Amazing observation deck with a breathtaking view! It takes about 30 minutes walk from the cable car. Beautiful and pleasant walk. The weather is a bit chilly so be prepared 😁 Take into account that since it's high you need to be careful with adjusting the mountains height. So walk slowly and stop as you go up. The view at the end is just unbelievable!
  • This place is after the 2nd cable car up. Then from the station it's about a 20 it so minute leisurely walk to get to. The path is generally cleared up so the snow has been pushed to the sides and makes it an easy walk without ice or snow on it (though you can veer off the path to play). 5 fingers itself does have some amazing views though it is weather dependent on the cloud cover. We got unlucky on that front with the view blocked, but we enjoyed the mountain views on the walk. Do try and plan it on a good visibility day.
  • Very beautiful view. We took Yeti tickets (48 Euro per person) but we think it's only worth it if you have time to walk different routs, not only to five fingers. Also, you can do it even with your hiking boots but you should be careful and only go on the path. With snow boots you can go a bit offrad, too
  • The most amazing cable car I've ever been on. A cable car that hangs on a cable without columns in the middle but only at the ends. The ascent is to a tremendous height and the view from the 5 fingers lookout is simply crazy. There is a 25-minute walk from the end of the cable car to the observation deck. A must destination in my opinion for everyone in Austria.
