Salzburg Airport to Obertauern

Your driver waits in the arrivals hall with a name board. Give your carrier the flight number so it can track the landing and adjust the pickup. Tell it about ski and board bags when you book, so the right vehicle is waiting.

Austria requires winter equipment in wintry conditions from 1 November to 15 April. On the B 99 over the Radstädter Tauern a "snow chains required" sign can be posted after snowfall, and where it stands every car, van and bus needs chains on at least two driven wheels. Chains may replace winter tires only on a road fully or almost fully covered in snow or ice. A carrier working the pass in winter has both.

The A10 needs a vignette: a 1-day vignette is €9.60 in 2026, and from 2027 the vignette is digital only. On a transfer the carrier normally pays it. The Tauern tunnel section toll starts at Flachau, south of exit 63, so it does not apply. The route stays in Austria.

Both. Exit 63 of the A10 is signed Radstadt by Obertauern and Altenmarkt (Ennstal) on motorway lists. From the south the resort's way in is A10 exit 104 at the St. Michael toll station, which is not a Salzburg route.

Declare ski bags, board bags and boot bags when you book. They decide the vehicle: a saloon carrying three passengers will not also carry three hard ski cases. For a group of four with equipment, an estate or a minivan is usually the right request.

Child and booster seats are available on request. Put the ages in the booking notes, not just the number of children, because the ages decide the seat type, and ask when you request offers rather than after you accept one.

Carriers on TransferBnB monitor the inbound flight and adjust the pickup, so a delayed landing does not cost you the car. Free waiting time after landing varies by carrier and is stated in the offer you accept.

About 1 hour 15 minutes in ordinary traffic. The route is the A10 Tauern motorway to exit 63, then the B 99 through Radstadt and Untertauern and up to the Radstädter Tauern pass, about 95 km in all. The last 28 km, valley road first and then the climb, take about 25 minutes in clear conditions. Operators who drive it publish 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes, and busy Saturdays and fresh snow on the pass make it longer.

About 95 km by road: the A10 Tauern motorway to exit 63, then 28 km on the B 99 over the Radstädter Tauern. The tourist office rounds it to about 90 km.

Not directly. Bus 2 runs from the airport to Salzburg main station in about 23 minutes, a train runs from there to Radstadt in about 1 hour 16 minutes with one change, and Postbus 280 or a taxi covers the last 20 km up to Obertauern. The 2026/27 winter timetable for bus 280 had not been published on 10 November 2026. A private transfer takes about 1 hour 15 minutes with no change and stops at your hotel.

Sometimes. Austria requires winter equipment in wintry conditions from 1 November to 15 April, and after snowfall a "snow chains required" sign can be posted on the B 99 over the Radstädter Tauern pass; where it stands, every car, van and bus needs chains on at least two driven wheels. The pass is at 1,738 m, about 880 m above Radstadt. A carrier that drives the pass in winter carries chains.

The B 99 climbs about 880 m over about 20 km from Radstadt to the 1,738 m pass, an average of about 4.4 %. The steepest part is a short ramp of about 10 to 13 % for almost 500 m where the road leaves the gorge above Untertauern, by one cycling database's profile.

Only the motorway vignette. The A10 to exit 63 needs one, and a 1-day vignette costs €9.60 in 2026. The Tauern tunnel section toll starts at Flachau, south of exit 63, so the route never reaches it, and the B 99 to the pass is toll-free. On a private transfer the carrier normally pays the vignette.

The resort set 20 November 2026 as the expected first day of the winter season, and skiing is scheduled to continue until 2 May 2027, with the full Tauernrunde circuit expected open until mid-April. An adult day pass costs €72 in 2026/27. Which lifts are open on a given day depends on snow and operating conditions.

Salzburg, on distance: about 95 km and 1 hour 15 minutes against about 262 km from Munich Airport. Both routes end on the same B 99 climb from Radstadt, so the pass is the same either way; from Salzburg the whole drive is about a third as long.

On TransferBnB, carrier offers start from around €160 for a saloon carrying 1 to 3 passengers, rising to around €180 for an estate, €225 for a minivan seating 5 to 8, and €340 for a minibus. Prices are per vehicle, not per person, and indicative until a carrier confirms the quote. The carrier normally pays for the Austrian vignette.
