    Tips

    September 11, 2023

    Driving the Großglockner High Alpine Road is a dream. At the top of the Kaiser Franz Josef Höhe you have a beautiful view of the glacier. But it's also sad how much it has declined in recent years. Tip: Walk through the 6 tunnels to the end and then, although closed, continue to the Pasterze junction. From there walk down to the glacier and continue along it until you reach the glacier cable car and take it back up to the house.
