The Dachstein plateau is made up of Norian-Rhaetiancyclic Dachstein Limestone characterised by an alternationof peritidal and inner platform lagoon facies. In accordancewith the aim of the work, exposures of the cycle boundaryintervals i.e. the disconformity surfaces, the altered top-most part of the cycles and the usually variegated basallayers of the overlying cycles were selected for detailedobservations and sampling. In the Gretl-Rast section a setof beds is exposed along a protected trail between Ober-feld and Wiesberghaus (N 47°30'55.5", E 13°38'55.6").Widening of this trail improved the exposure conditions justat the critical part of the succession. Results of the micro-facies studies are also presented.
