Slovenia, Italy, Austria: Motorcycling to Grossglockner High Alpine Road
Sunny Sunday was just perfect for some riding. We decided to visit 2 neighbouring countries, pass a couple of high alpine passes with a goal to ride on Grossglockner High Alpine Road.
Our first bigger pass was Passo di Pramollo/Naßfeld Pass at the altitude of 1552 meters and from there we went straight towards our the high alpine road, where we stopped at Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe @ 2369 m. We continued through tunnel at Hochtorl Pass (2504 m) and Fuscher Törl (2428 m) to Edelweißspitze viewpoint (2572 m), which was the highest point today. We descended to state of Salzburg and returned back home over Radstädter Tauern Pass (1738 m), Turracher Höhe Pass (1795 m) and nearby Ljubelj (1069 m).
