Grossglockner High Alpine Road

Today we drove our car up the the Grossglockner High Alpine Road (Großglockner Hochalpenstraße). This is a panoramic road named after the Grossglockner (See blip of Sunday), Austria's highest mountain. The road was built already 75 years ago and connects the state of Salzburg with the state of Carinthia.

Like a proper Alpine road it has loads of hairpin curves, high rise climbs and beautiful views all around. At one end of the road there is a panoramic view of the Pasterze Glacier and the Grossglockner itself.
