Английская Википедия:Hallstätter Glacier
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox glacier The Hallstätter Glacier (Шаблон:Lang-de) (formerly also called the Karleisfeld or Karl Icefield) is the largest glacier in the Dachstein Mountains.[1] It lies immediately beneath the northern foot of the Dachstein itself and runs down to the Eissee lake below the Simony Hut at a height of Шаблон:Convert. To the east the Hallstätter Glacier is bounded by the High Gjaidstein. Firmly sealed off at its western snout by the Schöberl, Шаблон:Convert, it is bordered in the west by the eastern flank of the Hohes Kreuz ridge, running from south to north, which reaches a height of Шаблон:Convert. In its upper third the glacier flows around a prominent landmark, the Eisstein. At its head in the south it is also bordered by the Hunerkogel and the Dirndln.[2]
Other glaciers on the Dachstein are the Gosau Glacier to the west and the Schladminger Glacier to the east.
