Glocknerkönig
Once again this year, on the first Sunday in June, the starting gun for the Glocknerkönig will fire right on time at 7:00 a.m. – the iconic cycling event open to all. Austria’s highest mountain, the Großglockner, draws cycling enthusiasts from across Europe to #bruckfusch, challenging around 2,000 participants to conquer its heights by bike.
The finish line for the "Classic" route awaits at 2,445 meters above sea level after a 27 km ascent to the Fuscher Törl. Those tackling the "Ultra" category will need to grit their teeth through seven cobbled switchbacks and another 127 meters of elevation gain.
