| How to get there | A good road (well they worked on it while I visited) goes from nice little village of Ebene-Reichenau (1062m) to the pass on the south side. It is not too difficult with a maximum steepness around 12%. From the other side you first have to climb a harder Eisentalhöhe (2049m) and then you descend to Sacklhütte (1519m) before a shorter climb which is also up to 12% to the pass. | |
| Other comments | The pass road is called the Nockalmstrasse and is a touristic road through a national park. It is quite nice in this area, especially up Glockenhütte where you pass a nice little lake and between the two high points. There are bars at both heights and one place inbetween. Eisenthalalm/Eisentalhöhe (2049m) seems like a pass itself, but is not usually regarded as such, but is included in the list here as there are grounds for arguing that it is indeed a pass. (Eisentalhöhe is the mountaintop which you come near at the highest point.) This is the most eastern paved pass in the Alps above 2000 meters, even though the Alps continues for quite some distance eastwards from here (and really high mountains too). [AT-KÄ-2020;o851] |
