The Großglockner – Austria’s highest mountain!
The Großglockner thrusts its summit 3,798 m into the heavens. Higher than any other mountain in Austria. A magical mountain in the midst of the Hohe Tauern, a magnificent world of high mountains, with more than 100 3000m+ summits. Conquer the most impressive summits in the Hohe Tauern, in the company of our certified mountain guides.
Seven Summits in the Hohe Tauern National Park
“Seven Summits”? This phrase makes tacit reference to the highest summits of the seven continents. Don’t worry though; we don’t intend to climb Mount Everest! But we have selected seven terrific target summits for you, all in the Hohe Tauern National Park. We cordially invite you to an unforgettable expedition across the entire National Park!
Climbing in the National Park
The Malta valley is among the best and most significant primary rock climbing areas in Austria. Exciting new routes are continually being established on the best rock and in a fabulous setting. But also worth a visit are the “climbing garden” on the Danielsberg in the Möll valley, near the Reißeck funicular, as well as the new climbing centre in the vicinity of the Arthur-von-Schmid House!
We do the driving; you do the walking!
It’s relaxing, a great experience, climate friendly and really good value: in 2011 the National Park Hikers’ Bus will operate from 18 June to 18 September, taking you to the most beautiful places for hiking in the National Park. In many cases our National Park Rangers and mountain guides will already be there waiting to accompany you on your explorations in the world of natural wonders!
