Zwölferhorn Cable Car
The Zwoelferhorn cable car from St. Gilgen rises to 1,522 meters and opens up a panoramic view of the Wolfgangsee and the surrounding Salzkammergut lake plateau that you cannot get from the lake level: water and forests spread below, with the Schafberg, Höllengebirge, and Dachstein glacier visible on a clear day.
