Ice cave at the Dachstein
Dachstein-Krippenstein (UA)
The Dachstein Glacier ice cave shines in new splendour
Dachstein Tourismus AG opened another highlight on the Dachstein-Krippenstein (Obertraun, Upper Austria): pronatour carefully staged the natural jewel of the ice cave. Cave bears and a suspension bridge over the ice abyss tempt you on a voyage of discovery through the sparkling world of experience.
The giant ice cave on the northern slope of the Dachstein massif has been struggling with declining visitor numbers for years. That's why, as part of a new presentation, everything was redesigned from scratch: The completely new lighting, including electrical installation, now allows impressive light and sound shows to be staged and has reduced the energy requirement to a tenth through the use of modern programmable LED technology. In addition, extra highlights were created: Two moving cave bears are witnesses to the cave's exciting history and a suspension bridge offers an unprecedented and spectacular view downwards to the famous ice formations. pronatour also developed the screenplay for the cave tours and was responsible for lighting and sound design as well as for the coordination of the various trades involved.
