The road & its landscape
Rounded summits, larch forest and visible road loops give the Nockalm crossing a softer Alpine character than a bare-rock high pass.
This is a seasonal toll road. The operator lists a motorcycle ban from 18:00 to 08:00 and last motorcycle entry at 17:15; confirm the current daily status before travelling.
Why ride here
A continuous, named mountain road with a clear sequence of forest, high points and visible bends.
Scenery along the road
The road rises from wooded lower slopes to two open high points, with rounded ridges repeatedly filling the horizon. Eisentalhöhe and Schiestlscharte provide distinct stopping places before the descent restores a closer forest setting.
Innerkrems ascent
Wooded slopes gradually give way to the rounded upper mountain relief.
Eisentalhöhe
The open high point brings the road bends and surrounding summits into the same view; use the designated rest area.
Schiestlscharte to Ebene Reichenau
A second upper stop extends the mountain panorama before the road descends through forest.
Roads from above
