E-bike tour: the myth of the Grossglockner High Alpine Road
The group sets off early in the morning by taxi and bike trailer to Pinzgau. In Ferleiten (1,145 m), we get on our e-bikes and follow the ‘Glocknerkönig route’. With every bend in the high Alpine road, you can enjoy the breathtaking views of the mountain peaks of the Hohe Tauern, dominated by the Großglockner. After 12.9 km and 1,283 metres of ascent, the tour reaches the Fuscher Törl (2,428 m) for a break. The route continues to the Edelweißspitze (2,521 m) with views of over 300 three-thousand metre peaks. The last destination is the Hochtor (2,503 m), before the tour continues safely to Ferleiten and back to Ellmau by shuttle.
