The Gmunden Tramway (German: Straßenbahn Gmunden) is a tram line in the town of Gmunden in Upper Austria, Austria. The tramway opened in 1894 and since 2018 the line has been connected to the Traunseebahn as part of the Traunseetram tram-train service. It is operated by Stern & Hafferl. The line's maximum gradient of 10.0% makes it one of the world's steepest surviving adhesion-only tram lines.
