Description Großlockner Hochalpenstraße in Austria is a road that climbs to a height of 2504 metres above sea-level. With a constant climb, you can't get up faster than 40-50 km/h with a gasoline consumtion of 20-30 litres/100km.
This picture is taken from 2504 metres. It was awesome!
There's a little shop on top of the road where you can stop for a coffee, buy a souvenir and even send a postcard home.
8 degrees celsius on the sunny side and 4,5 on the shadow side of the mountain. NO t-shirt climate!
I recommend the place warmly! It's about 50, maybe 60 kilometres south from Salzburg, Austria and it costs 26 euros to climb up there by car.

Hello and "servus", fellow deviant,

I've featured this photo in my "Exploring Austria" news article along with other great photos taken in or focus on this country. Please have a look and if you like what you see, fav the article or let me know what you think about it: [link]

Depending on its success I might come up with another Austria-related article in the near future, if you have other photos, feel free to send me a note with some links and suggestions

Thank you very much
Lydia

PS: I'll just post this message on every photo used in the article, sorry if I have used more pics from you and you're getting swamped with these - I want to make sure I notify everyone
