You can experience this natural spectacle from May until October, relax on the sun terrace on the „Franz-Josefs-Höhe” (2.369 m) facing the „Großglockner”, take the glacier lift to the „Pasterzen” glacier, or hike along one of the many trails.

Hohe Tauern National Park: the largest nature reserve of the Alps

The Hunguest Hotel Heiligenblut is nestled in one of the most beautiful places in the Alps, in the middle of the “Hohe Tauern” national park. The picturesque Heiligenblut is surrounded by 50 peaks each above 3,000 m and is considered to be “Austria’s magical village in the south”. On one side, the history-rich church in Heiligenblut overshadows the entire village with its vibrancy, and on the other the snow-covered Großglockner will catch your eye.

The Hohe Tauern National Park was established in 1981 and is therefore Austria's first National Park. During the following decades the National Park, which covers parts of the three provinces of Carinthia, Salzburg and Tyrol, developed into the larg-est nature reserve in Central Europe, with an area of over 1,834 km2.
