Campervan hire in Salzbourg

The campervan — VW California, Mercedes Marco Polo, Ford Transit Nugget — is the ultimate freedom format in Salzbourg: it drives like a large car, parks in town, yet hides a bed, a kitchenette and often a pop-top roof. It is the most contested segment of the market, split between private owners and professional fleets — the one where comparing platforms pays most.

Campervan routes out of Salzbourg

The Grossglockner Hochalpenstrasse, Austria's most famous scenic road — tolled — is reached in ninety minutes via Zell am See and hairpins its way up facing the country's highest summit. The Deutsche Alpenstraße ends just across the border at Berchtesgaden, and the B158 runs to the Salzkammergut lakes in under an hour.

Overnight stops with a campervan around Salzbourg

In Austria, the motorway vignette is compulsory and camping outside official sites is banned in most Länder, including the Land of Salzburg: campsites and official motorhome areas are the way to go. The region's scenic roads — Grossglockner, Gerlos towards the Zillertal — are tolled separately from the vignette; on the Bavarian side, German rules apply again.

The old town is pedestrian: park-and-ride south of the river and trolleybus. Beware Adriatic transit weekends, when the A10 saturates.
