From the Schmittenhöhe, an impressive view of the Großglockner, Austria's highest mountain, opens up. On clear days, the striking peak rises majestically from the Hohe Tauern range—a highlight for anyone who wants to fully enjoy the panorama.

From the Schmittenhöhe you have a wonderful view down to Zell am See and Lake Zell and the Hohe Tauern on the other side
