Glocknerkönig 2025
The Glocknerkönig is considered one of the most prestigious and toughest cycling challenges in Salzburg Land. Once a year, both professional cyclists and ambitious amateurs compete on the legendary route, which takes them through breathtaking landscapes and steep climbs. The two routes, Classic and Ultra, both start in the center of Bruck on the Großglocknerstraße and finish at the Fuscher Törl at 2.428m or at the Edelweißspitze at 2.571m. In total, cyclists must overcome 1.672 meters of elevation over 27.3 kilometers, or 1.815 meters of elevation over 28.9 kilometers, with gradients ranging from 10 to 12 percent.
