Grossglockner High Alpine Road

The Grossglockner High Alpine Road is one of the most fascinating panoramic roads in Europe. At 48 kilometers, it leads you right to the middle of the nature experience of the Hohe Tauern National Park. Where else is it possible to climb so fast and comfortably to high alpine regions up to 2.571 meters above sea level? Connoisseurs and nature lovers will be surprised with new breathtaking views at every turn. The "biggest Austrian", the 3,798 m high Grossglockner, seems within arm’s reach, and from the Kaiser Franz-Josefs-Höhe you can look down on the Pasterze glacier.

In addition to real natural spectacles, such as fields of blooming orchids or marmots roaming the meadows, numerous exhibitions can be admired along the road. Playgrounds, short hiking circuits and themed trails invite you to stretch your legs and gather exciting impressions of the Hohe Tauern National Park.
