Overview

Grossglockner / Heiligenblut

The ski area Großglockner/Heiligenblut offers mostely easy and intermediate slopes. The pistes are well-groomed and are not only suitable for skiers but also for snowboarders. The Großglockner (abbreviated “Glockner”) is the highest elevation in Austria with 3798 m. The mountain’s distinctive summit belongs to the Glockner group; a mountain range located in the mid part of the Hohe Tauern and is one of the most significant mountains in the Eastern Alps. The view on the mountain, which is one of Austria’s landmarks, is the natural star attraction of the Großglockner-Hochalpenstraße. The mountain valley Heiligenblut at the foot of the mountain welcomes guests and is not just because of it’s location in the heart of the Hohe Tauern national park a tourist magnet.
