About Eisriesenwelt
The Eisriesenwelt is an ice cave in the mountain above Werfen. The visit combines an access road, walking sections, a cable car and a guided underground route.
The circuit shows ice formations in galleries, with stairs and walking. Reaching the entrance already occupies a significant part of the program. It is not a visit that starts immediately upon stepping off the train or parking at the base of the road.
The season usually runs between May and October, depending on conditions and the operator’s schedule. The interior is cold even in summer; appropriate clothing and readiness for steps are part of the planning. Book the outing considering the whole approach and check requirements before taking very young children.
