グロースキルヒハイムの天然記念物・トップ20

One of the major transnational long-distance hiking trails in this region is the "ALPE-ADRIA-Trail", which leads from the Großglockner over the Nockberge Mountains to Slovenia and further south of Trieste, then to the Mediterranean Sea. Anyone who would like to take a closer look at the first glimpse can follow the route in the ARD media library: there is a two-part (one-hour total) documentary about this tour as part of the Bavarian television program "freizeit. Schmidt Max ...". with their scenic and cultural features.

A sublime feeling to drive through the Hochtor to Carinthia, on the other hand the sun also feels more and more "Mediterranean".

On through Druchafrt to zell am see here a wonderful break!

The path is worthwhile and is rewarded with wonderful views

Relatively easy to climb 3000m. The starting point for the mountain hike is the Alpengasthof Lucknerhaus, from there you can reach the summit in about 3 hours.

Pass at the Grossglockner, but if you want to get to the top, you should go to the Edelweißspitze with a crisp cobblestone ascent

The Grossglockner High Alpine Road, which runs over this pass and is only passable in summer, is a toll road and connects the two Austrian federal states of Salzburg and Carinthia. This panoramic road is Austria's highest pass crossing and the only road connection over the main Alpine ridge between Brenner and Salzburg's Lungau. It leads from Bruck an der Glocknerstrasse in the Salzach Valley through the Fuschertal (toll booth in Ferleiten, 1,145 m) in a southerly direction up to the Fuscher Törl (2,482 m) https://www.alpenpaesse-wasserscheiden.at/oesterreich/donau-flusswandel-und-verkehrsuebergaenge/inn-gebiet/hochtor-glocknerstrasse/

This viewpoint in the Hohe Tauern is named after the visit of the imperial couple Franz Joseph I and Elisabeth, Sisi, in 1856. The 26-year-old monarch wanted to see the Pasterze and hiked for four hours with his entourage from Heiligenblut up the 1,100 meters in altitude to the point where this event can still be seen carved in stone today. It is the Kaiserstein on the Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe. At that time, the Pasterze reached just as far as today's Freiwandeck car park and further down than the current Margaritze reservoir. Empress Elisabeth was content with a ride from Heiligenblut over a good 800 meters in altitude up to the Bretterboden, which was then called Elisabethruhe after her visit. In 1876, the Klagenfurt Alpine Club section built the Glocknerhaus on this spot with space for 40 people. During the construction of the Grossglockner High Alpine Road, a dead-end road was built by 1932, and the road was led around the next Riedel directly to the Pasterze. The actual Franz Josefs Höhe was built there. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-H%C3%B6he
