Hi there! Just imagine, in the bustling world of cyberspace, where every little keystroke is like a whisper among a crowd, my comment might seem like just a quick flicker. But hey, if it has managed to catch your eye, please know that it comes with a meaningful intention. Remember to stay strong when times get tough, okay? Because you've got all the strength you need to make it through any storm.

So... it is possible to build roads that are flat and smooth without cracks and potholes. I KNEW it was possible.

[@counterfit5]

Building them that way is the easy part. *Keeping* them that way is what's difficult

[@xnaida]

For sure! This road stays closed in the winter, it closes in November and opens in May. Thanks for Watching!

The movie was filmed in the Italian Alps so no wonder it looks similar to Austrian Alps. All the Alps accross Europe look quite similar.

[@TruckDriving79]

hi nice see you! i am drive inly in switzerland.

[@xnaida]

Thanks for coming

[@nenaddimi8319]

I drive this road with triple trailer truck on ETS2 :)))))))

[@marius1229]

At minute 19:18, you make a left turn to Edelweiss but the road sign to Grossglockner shows right (21km). I will travel this road in 2 weeks and I am wondering, should I make a left turn (like you do) or a right turn. Thank you 😁

[@Toopa88]

First off, it depends on from which direction you come because you can start from Carinthia or Salzburg. Turning left at 19:18 brings you to the Edelweißspitze and is definitely a location worth checking out. Another main location is at the end of the video, the Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe, where you are next to the Großglockner and can even hike to the glacier (there isn't much left of it 😅). Generally I recommend bringing a comfortable wind jacket, and proper shoes, especially if you want to explore the area by foot. You can actually hike for hours and hours, there are many routes (you'd need to research which ones are beginner/family friendly). I'm bringing that up because many people treat the High Alpine Road as just being a road with a nice landscape that has nothing else to offer. Hiking to the glacier can be a bit scary/cumbersome, so I recommend having made hiking experiences over the years. Another thing to keep in mind is that the weather is hard to predict over longer periods. So you can't say "the weather will be nice in 1 week". You should always plan 2-3 days in which you could hypothetically ride this road and choose the day with the best forecast. If you have a strict schedule and no flexibility, there is a good chance you don't have the best weather. In worst case, it's cloudy and foggy everywhere and you don't see any landscape. The weather in this video is pretty much the best you can possibly have, so be prepared that the weather and landscapes may be worse if you're not lucky. What you can always do is checking out webcams of the road. For example, google "Edelweißspitze webcam" and then you get a good idea whether the previous days had good weather or not. Regarding the duration of this road ride, it can take 1 hour or 6 hours, depending on what you do. If you make a lot of stops to take pictures, eat (someone has to to order "Kaiserschmarrn") and hike, it easily takes 4+ hours. If you just rush through the road with very few stops, you'll be done in less than 2 hours. I'd say consider this road like eating good food. Consider this analogy: You don't want to eat good food as quickly as possible, because then you barely live the experience. Eat the food with respect and passion and then it will be perfect. A similarly logic applies to riding this road, and everything in life I guess. PS: I recommend getting your car checked if you come with your own. You don't want any bad surprises on that road.

[@xnaida]

hey @marius1229 you should enter that road as well, It is the highest place drivable there, stunning view for sure. Just drive up and down, you can stop at the top, as you can see on the video. I hope you have a nice trip there as well!

[@counterfit5]

More snow than I would expect for late June

[@xnaida]

​@@counterfit5 Its normal for that place, I guess you don't know it right? So basically it stays closed from November to May, and it is a very high place!

[@SharifRahman99]

I was planning the Grossglockner drive from Munich in early July (2024), but I had to cancel the trip due to rainy weather. I’ll try again next year in late June, hopefully with a lot of snow but sunny sky.

You should Google/Airbnb it. It depends on various factors. I cannot help you with that, but definitely not cheap.

[@Leo-rj5ie]

Does anybody know of you could ski down the street in the winter?

[@xnaida]

Yep, that's why this road is close in the winter, and opens only in May until November.

[@Toopa88]

The road is closed in winters because there are usually 10-15 meters of snow. The skiing areas are not on the road itself but at other places. By the way, I think they start removing the snow in late April and it takes around a month to do so.
