Route Details, Issues & Alternatives

The direct route from Salzburg to Saalbach (86,6km) will take you via routes B21 and B311. Head to Christian-Doppler-Platz and Loiger Street in the direction of Innsbrucker Bundesstraße/B1. Move to Bad Reichenhall (B21), Lofer (B178) and Saalfelden (B311), move towards Glemmerstraße/Glemmtaler Landesstraße (Maishofen). In Maishofen continue to Saalbach Hinterglemm (L111). Always ask the driver about the best possible route. If there is bad weather or snow, you should add extra time for your transfer.

 

What to Do En-Route

You don’t have to go directly to your end destination. Ask your driver for a short stop (up to 10 minutes) -your legs will thank you when you get out to stretch them. If you wish to stop at any stage of the trip, we will happily accommodate this.

There are numerous supermarkets on your way to Saalbach. If you are hungry on your way to the resort, you can choose a few snacks for the journey. You may find that products bought on the way to ski resort are cheaper than those found in the resort itself. Maybe that is better to get your travel essentials before your arrival at your dream destination. Please note that all shop visits should be pre-booked with Customer Support prior your arrival.

Saalbach is located in the beautiful Kitzbuhler Alps, in the glorious Glemmtal valley. No doubt you will enjoy its breathtaking mountain scenery during your airport transfer.  Get your camera ready for some nice shots.

 

Journey Altitude

It’s important to remember that your journey from Salzburg to Saalbach will take you to a higher altitude. This can present its own potential complications.

Salzburg airport sits at 430m, while Saalbach ski resort sits at an altitude of 1000m. Some passengers can experience mild discomfort, such as nausea, headaches and dizziness can be the symptoms of the change in air pressure. Young children are often the ones at risk to feel unwell.

When you combine this air pressure change with steep, serpentine roads, the journey can be difficult for some people. If needed, ask your driver to lower the temperature in the vehicle to help you feel more comfortable.

If you are feeling particularly unwell, the beautiful mountain scenery can be the perfect medicine for you.

How Much Will Your Transfer From Salzburg to Saalbach Cost?

At Alps2Alps, we aim to offer the best value transfers to all resorts in the Alps. We like to take a transparent approach to price structure. We take a number of factors into consideration when calculating our quotes. These factors include:

  • Your journey

  • The number of people travelling

  • The day and time you travel

  • Any discounts available

When calculating fares, we start with our standard price and then reduce this based on the factors mentioned above. This dynamic approach means we only ever decrease our prices – never increase them.

Pricing is also affected by vehicle availability, transfer schedule, vehicle utilisation and additional costs such as road tolls and parking charges.
