The most scenic road in Europe
The Grossglockner High Alpine Road in Austria is considered one of the most beautiful roads in Europe with mountains, glacial lakes, waterfalls and colorful flower meadows.

The Grossglockner High Alpine Road winds through the mountains from Bruck, Salzburg, to Heiligenblut, Carinthia. |

Photographer Mikołaj Gospodarek has been driving along this road since 2008, taking photos in different seasons. |
 |
Impressive journey with mountain peaks, glaciers, waterfalls and huts along remote roads. |
 |
The road runs through the mountains from Bruck in the state of Salzburg to Heiligenblut in Carinthia via Fuscher Törl. |
 |
The road becomes a tourist attraction from May to October. |
 |
In winter, white snow covers everywhere. |
 |
Named after Austria's highest mountain, the road was planned by a group of Austrian engineers in 1924. Their ambitious plan was ridiculed. |
 |
But 11 years later, the Grossglockner High Alpine Road was officially opened in August 1935. The road was like a ribbon across mountains, flower-filled meadows, ice and snow. |
 |
Thousands of tourists come here to admire the beautiful scenery. |
 |
The roar of waterfalls, the chirping of squirrels, and the rushing wind on the mountain tops give visitors an unforgettable experience. |
