The Dientner saddle is a 1342  m above sea level. A. located mountain saddle in the Salzburger Land in Austria . Via the road pass, which is open all year round, the Hochkönig Straße (B 164) connects Bischofshofen in the east with Saalfelden in the west. The felt saddle also lies between these places .

Since a saddle (in the field) is the lowest point of a watershed, but roads almost never follow the watercourse directly, the road reaches its apex near the Dientalm at 1370  m (see photo).
