    The highest point on the Grossglockner High Alpine Road. Fantastic view but also a lot of wind. Up here, you should always be prepared for any kind of weather.

    From Heiligenblut this is the highest point. From the tunnel you have a view into the distance

    When the weather is nice, it's definitely a dream, but unfortunately we were completely unlucky in 2011.
    2020 another attempt in the best weather.
    The Hochtor is the border between Carinthia and Salzburg.
    It is the second highest point, the only higher point is the Edelweißspitze.
