Hiking
The Grossglockner High Alpine Road is a high alpine mountain road that connects the two Austrian federal states of Salzburg and Carinthia. It leads from Bruck an der Großglocknerstraße over the two mountain passes Fuscher Törl and Hochtor (tunnel portal 2504 m above sea level, historical pass height 2576 m above sea level) to Heiligenblut am Großglockner and has branches to the Edelweißspitze and the Kaiser-Franz-Josefs- Height. It is the highest paved pass road in Austria.
The Großglockner High Alpine Road is primarily of touristic importance as an adventure road; driving is subject to a toll for motor vehicles.

Here you should really stop by car and enjoy the view and the snow. Snowball fights in summer or a short hike on Römerweg.
