From Munich: Grossglockner High Alpine Road Private Day Trip

Discover the Grossglockner High Alpine Road on a private day trip from Munich. Enjoy panoramic views of the Alps, stop at scenic viewpoints, and see the Pasterze Glacier.
1. Fuscher Törl – First Alpine Panorama

Our first major stop is Fuscher Törl, one of the most beautiful viewpoints along the Grossglockner High Alpine Road.

At an altitude of around 2,428 meters, the landscape suddenly opens into a spectacular high-alpine panorama. This is where you begin to truly experience the scale of the Grossglockner region, with dramatic mountain peaks, winding roads and deep Alpine valleys stretching into the distance.

Take your time to enjoy the scenery and capture some of the most impressive photos of the journey.

2. Edelweiss-Spitze – Austria’s Highest Road Viewpoint

Continue to Edelweiss-Spitze, the highest accessible point on the Grossglockner High Alpine Road at 2,571 meters.

A short, winding side road leads to this spectacular summit viewpoint. From the top, you can enjoy an exceptional 360-degree panorama of the surrounding Alps, including views toward more than 30 peaks above 3,000 meters.

The historic mountain road and panoramic summit make Edelweiss-Spitze one of the most memorable photo stops of the entire tour.

3. Hochtor – The Alpine Pass

Next, stop at Hochtor, the highest pass on the main Grossglockner route at around 2,504 meters.

Hochtor marks the transition between the Austrian regions of Salzburg and Carinthia. The landscape here becomes distinctly high alpine, with rocky peaks, snowfields and dramatic mountain scenery surrounding the road.

It is a perfect short stop for photographs and to experience the impressive altitude of the Grossglockner route.

4. Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe – Grossglockner & Pasterze Glacier

The highlight of the journey is Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe, situated at 2,369 meters.

From this spectacular viewpoint, you stand almost at eye level with Grossglockner, Austria’s highest mountain at 3,798 meters. Below you stretches the impressive Pasterze Glacier, surrounded by the high peaks of the Hohe Tauern.

Take a walk around the viewing areas, enjoy the mountain panorama and, if conditions allow, explore the visitor center and viewpoints overlooking the glacier.

This is the main highlight of the tour and the place where we allow the most time.
