Munich & The Grossglockner - 4 days

Munich & The Grossglockner Driving Tour 

Our Grossglockner Driving Tour gives you the opportunity to drive one of the greatest driving roads in Europe not once, but twice as part of a 3-night package touring the beautiful Bavarian and Austrian Alps. 

The trip starts in the vibrant city of Munich and includes two full days of driving in the German & Austrian Alps to the south of the city. Highlights of the tour include a wonderful stretch of de-restricted (no speed limit) German Autobahn, the scenic German Alpine Road, the spectacular Hohe Tauern National Park (the largest National Park in western Europe and the home to the spectacular Kriml Waterfalls) and of course the Grossglockner Pass. This drive is naturally the highlight of the trip as the road rises to a height of more than 2400 m, and is, in our opinion, all-around the greatest mountain road in the Alps.

Day 2 - Autobahn & Grossglockner Pass

The following morning, your car will be delivered directly to the hotel and you can officially be on your way! The first stage of the tour will take you from the city onto a beautiful stretch of de-restricted Autobahn through Bavaria where you will skirt along the super scenic German Alpine Road before dipping south into Austria. Next, you will head to the beautiful lakeside resort of Zell am See for lunch, at the exclusive Schloss Prielau, a small castle / hotel owned by the Porsche family. After lunch, the tour continues directly onto the Grossglockner, the highest and longest mountain pass in Austria, for two hours of driving Nirvana. Continue south down the pass into the Austrian Tyrol, and the most southerly town in Austria, to picture-perfect Lienz where you will spend the evening. 

Overnight Hotel: 5-Star Grandhotel Lienz Austria

Day 3 - The High Tauern Park & Bavarian Lakes

Day 3 starts with another run across the pass, but don't worry - driving in the opposite direction is a completely different experience! Soon you'll head into the heart of the High Tauern National Park, the largest National Park in Europe. Here you can expect to enjoy sweeping valleys, the Krimml waterfalls, and stunning mountain backdrops. The tour then continues up to the ski resort of Kitzbuhel. After lunch, head across the border back into Germany and into the Bavarian Alps, before continuing through the lake region. Skirt around two more lakes before rejoining the Autobahn and heading directly back to your hotel in Munich. Your car will be collected from the hotel, and we recommend you then head out into the city to enjoy the unique nighttime atmosphere Munich has to offer.
