Before you go

Local tips

  • 1Buy the Austrian digital vignette before entering the A12; verify that immediate validity is selected.
  • 2Keep a payment card ready for the A13 Brenner toll and Italian A22/A4 toll booths.
  • 3Leave Bolzano’s car in the hotel garage; the museum, arcades and river are easiest on foot.
  • 4Check the Brenner traffic report before leaving Innsbruck because summer queues can add substantial time.
  • 5Try to obtain the earliest available Ötzi museum ticket on Tuesday morning; use the general queue if sold out.
  • 6Refuel near Innsbruck or Bolzano rather than at motorway service areas, where prices are usually higher.

Good to know

  • 1Austria requires a motorway vignette on the A12, while the A13 Brenner section charges a separate route toll.
  • 2Italian A22 and A4 motorways use distance-based toll tickets; do not enter Telepass-only lanes.
  • 3Bolzano and Verona have camera-controlled ZTL zones; use the named garages and never follow navigation into restricted streets.
  • 4Summer roadworks and holiday traffic can create long queues around Kufstein, the Brenner Pass and the A4 near Verona.
  • 5Carry original identification and vehicle papers even though Schengen borders normally have no routine checks.
  • 6Alpine thunderstorms can reduce visibility quickly, but the motorway corridor normally remains open in August.
