Reach 3,000 Meters Without Technical Climbing
Austria's network of modern funiculars and 3S tricable gondolas makes high-alpine glaciers accessible in under 30 minutes from valley train stations: ride the Nordkettenbahnen straight from central Innsbruck, stand at 3,029m on the Kitzsteinhorn Top of Salzburg, cross the 140m suspension bridge on Bad Gastein's Stubnerkogel, or drive the 48-kilometer Grossglockner High Alpine Road to the Pasterze Glacier.
