About This Route

Austria's highest mountain pass road. A masterpiece of engineering that brings you face-to-face with the Pasterze glacier and the Grossglockner, the country's highest peak. WARNING: 36 hairpins and an ascent to 2,504 meters. The climb is non-stop and very steep. This is the ultimate test for your van's temperature gauge and brakes on the way down. Use engine braking!
