When you set out on a drive up the Glockner Road, you are actually following in the tracks left by royalty. In fact, their majesties Emperor Franz Joseph I and Empress Sissi set out from Heiligenblut 165 years ago to personally conquer this beautiful pass road, now located in Hohe Tauern National Park. From the beginning of May until October, Bruck is thus the ideal starting point for an impressive, 48 km scenic ride by car or bike, taking you up through a total of 36 hairpin bends. Two-wheeling fans use Bruck as a base camp for tours in every direction, since the village also lies in the heart of the Tauernradweg biking region, boasting an incredible 1200 km of bike paths!

Event highlights

For bike enthusiasts it is a must to take part in the Glocknerkönig, which takes place every year on the first weekend in June.  It is a unique experience to conquer the highest mountain in Austria by pedalling in the large international starting field. Another special feature: the Grossglockner High Alpine Road will be closed for the duration of the event – so the ascent can be enjoyed car-free. In the summer, there are many small events such as the “Rund-uman-Brunn” festivals or the „Almabtrieb“ – when the cattle is brought home from the mountains, which always focus on topics such as tradition, regionality and sustainability. The summer season ends in mid-September with the Oldtimer Tractor World Championship, where 500 tractor enthusiasts compete with their special companions for the world championship title.
