Mammuthöhle - Dachstein Salzkammergut, Austria - videoPlay
The first station of the Dachstein Krippenstein cable car, which starts in Obertraun, in the southern part of Lake Hallstatt, is Schönbergalm. Here you can find the Ice Cave and the Mammoth Cave. The latter is not named after the now extinct relatives of elephants, but rather because of its enormous size.

Currently, the explored total length of the cave system is nearly 70 km. Due to the size of the visited underground halls and passages, their weak illumination, and the continuous flow of tourist crowds during the guided tour, the video ended up having a poor quality.
