Why Grossglockner High Alpine Road matters
The Grossglockner road climbs through hairpins to a viewpoint opposite Austria's tallest mountain. On a clear day you can see the Pasterze glacier, the long river of ice. The road is open in the warmer months, and it's best done slowly with plenty of stops.
Talking points
- Austria's tallest peak rises nearby.
- A glacier is visible from the viewpoint.
