Scale the highest peak in Austria!
Climb the highest mountain in Austria.
An exciting tour with rocks, ice, and snow.
Stay overnight in the highest hut in Austria.
Accompanied by a mountain guide with a lot of experience on the Glockner.
The Großglockner guided tour is an exciting adventure on Austria's highest summit. Standing proud at 3,798 meters, the Großglockner offers a diverse ascent with hiking trails, glacier crossings, ice slopes, and easy rock climbing. You will be accompanied by an experienced mountain guide who has extensive experience on the Glockner.
Due to the relatively short stages, it is possible to undertake this climb with a bit less experience. Our mountain guide will personally coach you and teach you the necessary skills for this challenge. You will receive individual support during the ascent to ensure that you develop the required abilities.
For safety reasons, we have set the maximum number of participants per guide at 2. As the number of participants increases, the applied safety techniques become more hazardous. We have implemented this regulation not only to protect our guests and guides but also for the sake of comfort. Walking in a group of two behind the guide is much more enjoyable than being in a group of three.
We will provide all the technical equipment required for the ascent. You only need to bring good hiking boots and appropriate clothing. After booking, you will receive a detailed list of the necessary equipment from us.

For this tour, a basic level of fitness is required as you will be actively engaged for approximately 8 hours and will be covering an elevation gain of 900 meters. You should have little to no issues with altitude sickness.
The Normal Route of the Großglockner is not excessively difficult but does include some shorter challenging sections. Due to the shorter stages, this ascent is quite accessible.
