Mayrhofen to Munich Airport

Mayrhofen to Munich Airport is one of the more straightforward resort-to-airport runs in the Alps. The Zillertal is a direct valley — one road in, the same road out — and from Jenbach the Inn Valley motorway connects cleanly to the German A8 and north to Munich Airport. Total distance is around 157 kilometres, and the journey takes about 1 hour 45 minutes in normal conditions.

The outbound direction on this route is less congested than the inbound Friday rush. Sunday afternoons in ski season see some northbound pressure as weekenders head home, but nothing like the volumes on the A8 south of Munich. For most end-of-holiday departures, mid-morning and early afternoon remain the smoothest windows. Your carrier will confirm a departure time based on your flight.

Pickup in Mayrhofen is at your hotel. The village has good vehicle access, and the main hotels are well-used to coordinating ski bag pickups on departure day. If you're staying in Finkenberg or Hintertux — the glacier end of the valley — your carrier will collect from there; it adds 10 to 25 minutes to the journey time, which matters for early morning flights. Confirm your exact address and flight details when booking.

Snowbombing week (6–11 April 2026) is the single busiest outbound period for this route all year. On the final morning of the festival — typically a Sunday — hundreds of international guests all leave the valley at similar times. Transfer capacity is limited and fills up fast. If you're attending Snowbombing, book your return transfer before or immediately after confirming your accommodation. Waiting until you arrive is a significant risk.
