Ready for an adventure? Here’s my unforgettable journey through Schladming in the Alps and Rocky Mountain House, packed with epic mountain views, sky-high thrills, and a dash of local flavor 🌄🪂 Top Spots to Visit Schladming: If you’re craving action, Schladming is the spot. I went paragliding under bright blue Alpine skies — seriously, the views over the Dachstein range are insane! Book with local companies right in town (flights usually run mid-morning for the best weather). Don’t miss a photo op amid the classic Western-style buildings — the old town is super photogenic. Grab an apfelstrudel at Cafe Niederl (Hauptpl. 5, open 9am–6pm) for a sweet local treat. Rocky Mountain House: Switching up the vibe, the Canadian Rockies are all about wide-open landscapes. Explore the Rocky Mountain House National Historic Site (Site is open daily 10am–5pm, 28054 S Parks Rd), then trail around nearby Bighorn Country for untouched wilderness feels. Pack layers — weather flips fast, even in summer! Camping and hiking trails are everywhere; starter routes posted at the town visitor center (4904 48 St). Travel Tips 🚗 Getting Around: In Schladming, walk or rent a bike; everything’s close. In RMH, a car or local taxi is a must since distances are big. 🍽️ Eats: Try Canadian bison at Grillers Steakhouse (5023 50 Ave, 11am–9pm)! 🌦️ Weather: Schladming stays breezy and cool. RMH can get chilly at night — bring a jacket. 💰 Cash: Most places take cards, but tiny Alpine bakeries still love cash! #AlpineThrills #RockyMountainViews #SkyHighAdventure #TravelTips

Dachstein-Gletscher (Schladming-Dachstein)

Snow-Kissed Wonders at Dachstein Glacier ❄️🏔️ Get ready to bask in the breathtaking beauty of Dachstein-Gletscher, where icy peaks meet sunlit alpine meadows and modern architecture nests beside timeless natural wonders. Ramsau am Dachstein is the perfect gateway for an unforgettable outdoor experience—think dazzling glacier views, crisp mountain air, and endless blue skies! Begin your adventure right from Ramsau am Dachstein by early morning: arrive at Schildlehen 79 before 09:00 for that golden hour glow on both rugged glaciers and sleek glacier station buildings. Ride the panoramic gondola to the Ice Palace—don't miss snapping close-ups of intricate ice sculptures with snowy peaks sparkling in the background! Next, walk the Sky Walk, a dramatic platform suspended over the abyss—sunny days give you crystal-clear vistas, brilliant nature shots, and fantastic “feet-above-clouds” selfies. On warm afternoons, stroll along flower-lined routes peppered with modern alpine architecture; the contrast of vivid blossoms and glacier grandeur is pure photo magic. Key tips: – Double-check opening hours (closed Tuesdays, and winter blackout dates!). – Wear layered clothing—even if sunny, winds at the peak can bite. – Sunglasses are a must for sunny glare off snow and glassy structures. – Bring extra camera batteries; chilly weather drains them fast. – Walking shoes with strong grip: paths can be icy even in spring! Caution: Weather shifts fast—pack a backup rain shell and avoid cliffside walks if fog suddenly rolls in. #Dachstein #RamsauamDachstein #SnowMountain #OutdoorAdventure #Austria

Dachstein Skywalk

Dreaming of alpine magic? 🌄 Let’s talk about Dachstein — Austria’s epic playground for adventure, glacier views, and bucket-list moments! Whether you’re chasing glass skywalks, hiking cool trails or just chilling out in awe of the massive mountains, this spot absolutely delivers. Top Spots to Visit at Dachstein: 1. Dachstein Skywalk (Dachsteinstraße 125, 4831 Ramsau am Dachstein) Open: 9am–4:30pm (weather dependent) My tip: Get up early and be one of the first on the glass platform — the morning views over the valleys and peaks are unreal (and you’ll beat the crowds for photos)! 2. Ice Palace (next to the Skywalk) Open: same as Skywalk Pro move: Wear super grippy shoes. It’s colder and slicker than you expect inside! The ice sculptures are wild, and very IG-worthy 😎. 3. Suspension Bridge & Stairway to Nothingness Directly by the Skywalk Don’t rush it — slow walks let you soak in the sheer drop below and the mad scenery. Food Break: The Gletscherrestaurant right at the top station serves up epic Austrian classics (yes to apple strudel and creamy soups). Prices are fair for a mountain spot, and you get panoramic views from your seat! How to get up? Park at Dachstein Cable Car base (Dachsteinstraße 134). Then hop the cable car — tickets can be booked online with trip.com for easy access during busy periods. Cable car runs 8:30am–5pm (changes with season/weather). Travel Tips: Bring layers, even in summer! Weather flips fast up there ❄️☀️. The cable car is THE fastest, easiest way; public buses to the base operate from Schladming and Ramsau. Card payments taken nearly everywhere. No visa needed for EU/Schengen citizens; others check entry rules! #Dachstein #AlpineAdventure #tripcom #AustriaTravel #EpicViews
