If you continue up the road, you'll see toll booths that guard the entrance to the Grossglockner. You can buy a one-way, or a two-way ticket. Think about it and plan in advance, because if you intend on doing a roundtrip, it's worthwhile to buy the two-way ticket. We came back through a different mountain path, to diversify our drive, so we bought a one-way ticket. The road itself is tortous and long, and you must drive with great caution. The drive can take up to five hours, so drive patiently, stop at the observing points, and don't take your eys off the road as you drive! The roads are narrow and two-way. The view is, of-course, breathtaking. On the roadside, there are caravan parks, in which you can throw a picnic, or eat at restaurants or cafes. The mountain area is very cold, and you should equip yourself accordingly. The more you climb up the mountain - the colder it gets.
