The Hoher Gjaidstein is a 2,794 metres (9,167 ft) high mountain peak in the Dachstein Mountains in Upper Austria east and above the Hallstätter Glacier. It may be reached from the summit station of the Dachstein South Face Cable Car or from the Simony Hut each of which is an easy grade I climb. As well as the Hoher Gjaidstein there is also the Niederen Gjaidstein and the Kleinen Gjaidstein.
