Just be aware that Salz to Vienna is another 300 miles.


Salzburg to Vienna is less than 200 miles and can be made in about 3 hours.

Before crossing the Austrian border, you will need to purchase a vignette a attach it to the windshield as shown on the back. You can get the vignette at any gas station heading toward Salzburg. You can exit at the border and get a vignette before entering Austria. see link below for more info

Where do you plan to park the car while visiting Salzburg?

Crossing the border in a car is like crossing a state line in the USA. There’s a sign, sometimes an old border station, and that’s it. You cruise on through. There’s usually a welcome center on the big interstates.

The pass you need is only for the interstate I believe. I went twice before knowing I needed it, and was never stopped or ticketed. Not saying not to get it, definitely get it. Just saying if you don’t have it right away they aren’t going to throw you in a Soviet prison or anything.

If you have a couple hours, the Herrenchiemsee Castle is a great day trip. Like 5 minutes off the interstate but you have to take a boat to it so it takes awhile.

Thank you all for the info. As for as parking, idk, looking to spend 1 night there... Am looking at doing a few towns/cities in Bavaria...Regensburg, then Salzburg, back to Lake Chiemsee and last few days in Munich. 7 nights total.

Yes, I typed miles when I meant kilometers. But if the origin is Munich, there are plenty of interesting destinations in southern Bavaria to explore by car without going all the way to Vienna. Also, Innsbruck is a bit closer and worth a visit.
