Motorbike holiday: Grossglockner - Hohe Tauern

Motorbike Eldorado on Austria's highest mountain

The Großglockner - Hohe Tauern region is an absolute dream destination for motorcyclists. Its centrepiece is the legendary classic pass road, the Grossglockner High Alpine Road. The queen of Alpine roads winds its way over 36 hairpin bends up to the Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe at 2,369 metres and from there offers a spectacular view of Austria's highest mountain, the Großglockner at 3,798 metres. In the tri-regional corner of Salzburg, Tyrol & Berchtesgadener Land there is no shortage of high alpine adventure roads.

A motorbike holiday in the Großglockner - Hohe Tauern region leads through impressive alpine dream landscapes. From the Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe with a view of the Großglockner at 2,369 metres to the Edelweissspitze with its marmots, there is plenty to experience. There is also plenty to discover away from the High Alpine Road, for example Zell am See or the impressive Krimml Waterfalls with a drop of 380 metres at the end of the valley.

The central location in SalzburgerLand makes the region the perfect starting point. The Gerlos Alpine Road and the Nockalm Road can also be reached from here in no time at all. The Kaprun high mountain reservoirs with the imposing Drossensperre dam at 2,100 m should not be missed on a motorbike holiday in the Großglockner - Hohe Tauern region. Culture, nature and motorcycling experiences merge in the Großglockner - Hohe Tauern region to create an unforgettable holiday in the Alps.

As we all know, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. So it comes as no surprise that Karin Vötter was born with a passion for motorbikes. After all, her father Helmut has collected around 200 classic cars in his museum. "That at least explains my fondness for motorised vehicles, no matter how many wheels are attached to them. The main thing is that there is something to accelerate," says Karin with a laugh. There is simply a lot of horsepower in the VÖTTER DNA ..

As a good host, I have to be cruel to my guests from time to time. Especially when we set off for the Großglockner at the crack of dawn to experience an unforgettable sunrise. Afterwards, however, I am regularly forgiven.
