About This Transfer
No resort on the Alpine calendar carries quite the weight of Kitzbühel. Home to the Hahnenkamm - the most feared downhill run in the world - and a medieval Tyrolean town that has been drawing wealthy visitors since the 19th century, Kitzbühel is a year-round destination. A private transfer from Munich Airport gets you there in around 1 hour 45 minutes, door to door, without the two train connections or the stress of driving mountain roads yourself.
The route heads southeast from Munich on the A8 motorway, crosses the German-Austrian border near Rosenheim and continues through the Inn Valley past Kufstein and Wörgl before the final stretch south to Kitzbühel. It's a straightforward cross-border journey: Schengen rules apply, so there's no passport control for EU travellers, though occasional spot checks happen in winter and a valid ID is worth having. Your carrier handles the Austrian motorway vignette (currently €12.80 for 10 days), so there's nothing to sort at the border.
In winter, this is one of the busiest ski transfer routes in the Alps. Traffic builds significantly on Fridays, during Christmas and New Year, and especially around the Hahnenkamm Race - held every January, with 87,000 fans descending on the region for what many consider the most atmospheric week in ski racing. The 2026 race runs from 19 to 26 January. If you're travelling that week, book early and allow extra time. Outside of those peak periods, traffic is generally manageable.
Summer Kitzbühel is a different proposition. Over 1,000 km of hiking trails fan out from the town, including the KAT Walk - a six-stage route through the Kitzbüheler Alps. The Generali Open tennis tournament draws a stylish crowd in July. Mountain bikers have taken over the Streif. The Schwarzsee lake offers mineral-rich alpine swimming. Demand for transfers stays consistent through both seasons.
Carriers on this route can also accommodate nearby destinations: Kirchberg in Tirol (5 minutes, part of the same KitzSki area), St. Johann in Tirol (around 30 minutes), and other villages in the KitzSki network. Mention your exact destination when booking.

Sights Along the Route
Your driver covers the distance — you enjoy the scenery.
Kufstein Fortress
One of Austria's best-preserved medieval fortresses sits directly above the Inn River. Visible from the motorway, it dominates the skyline as you cross into Austria. The fortress hosts open-air concerts each summer.
Official site →Wilder Kaiser Mountains
The dramatic limestone peaks of the Wilder Kaiser range frame the final stretch to Kitzbühel. The village of Söll offers a photogenic view of both the mountains and the valley below — worth a brief pause.
Explore the region →Kitzbühel Old Town
The pastel-coloured medieval town centre of Kitzbühel is one of the Alps' most photographed streets. The Hahnenkamm course begins right above the town — your driver can point out the famous start house from below.
Kitzbühel tourism →Rosenheim Old Town
A handsome Bavarian market town with an arcaded pedestrian zone. If you leave Munich early, a coffee stop in Rosenheim's Stadtplatz is a pleasant 10-minute detour before you hit the Austrian border.

Best Travel Times
Depart Munich Airport before 08:00 or after 10:30 on weekdays to avoid Munich outbound rush. On Friday afternoons (Dec–Apr) add 30–45 min for ski-weekend traffic on the A93 south of Kiefersfelden.
Traffic Patterns
The Kiefersfelden border crossing (A93) is the main bottleneck. Peak congestion: Friday 14:00–19:00 southbound, Sunday 15:00–20:00 northbound. Austrian border police do periodic checks — allow extra time during school holidays.
Road & Border Notes
Austrian vignette required from Kiefersfelden onward. Carriers include this in their price. The B173 from Wörgl to Kitzbühel is a single carriageway alpine road — expect 30–45 min for the final 50km in icy or snowy conditions.
Carrier Tip
Most Kitzbühel-route carriers have ski and snowboard racks available. Request this when booking — it avoids putting gear in the passenger area on a full vehicle.
