Winklern: Mölltal Straße - Großglocknerstraße

3 46.87°, 12.86° E
About location

The Möll River defines the setting of Winklern — its broad valley floor concentrates settlement, farmland and roads between the steep, forested slopes of the Hohe Tauern. The community stands where the Mölltal Straße (B106), the main route through the Möll Valley, meets the Großglockner Straße (B107), leading via Heiligenblut towards the Großglockner High Alpine Road. This junction gives Winklern an important practical role for travel through Upper Carinthia and into the mountain valleys. Opened in 1935, the Großglockner High Alpine Road is among Austria’s best-known mountain routes. Winklern’s compact centre, surrounding fields and scattered homes reflect the settlement pattern of this Alpine river corridor.

Carinthia
Region Carinthia

Carinthia is best known within Austria for its warm Alpine lakes, especially Lake Wörthersee. Austria’s southernmost province lies along the eastern Alps, where the Drava River runs through broad valleys below mountain slopes. Lake Millstatt and Lake Ossiach provide further waterside focal points, while the rounded Nock Mountains shape much of the interior. Klagenfurt, the provincial capital, is recognised for the Lindwurm fountain on Neuer Platz, a long-standing symbol of the city.

Country Austria

Austria stretches from the Bohemian Massif along its northern edge to the Carnic Alps on the Italian border, encompassing high Alpine ranges and the Danube lowlands. The Danube links cities including Linz and Vienna, while the Grossglockner, at 3,798 metres, is the country’s highest mountain. Vienna developed for centuries as the seat of the Habsburg court, leaving imperial architecture around the Hofburg and Schönbrunn Palace. Salzburg is closely associated with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, who was born there in 1756. Alpine Tyrol, wine-growing areas east of Vienna and the lakes of Salzkammergut add markedly different regional identities.
