Border crossing

Austria → Germany border (Walserberg)

En route

The Austrian A1 becomes the German A8 at Walserberg, soon after leaving Salzburg. This is a Schengen-internal crossing, but police checks or temporary border controls may occur, so keep a passport or national ID card within reach.

★
Optional stop

The A8 runs along Bavaria’s largest lake. Prien, the market town on the Chiemsee shore, makes a lakeside break on the way to Munich.

Munich → Salzburg →

Salzburg to Munich — what to expect

Salzburg to Munich is about 145 km by road. From the city the A1 West Autobahn runs a few kilometres to the German border at Walserberg; there the A8 takes over and leads north-west past the Chiemsee and Rosenheim into Munich. Allow about 1h 40m of driving without stops, and longer if you are going to Munich Airport, north-east of the city.

Private transfer vs train and bus

Direct trains run between Salzburg and Munich, and long-distance coach journeys operate on the route as well; check the current timetable before travelling. A private transfer takes you from your Salzburg hotel or the airport straight to your hotel, the Hauptbahnhof or Munich Airport, with no change on the way and your luggage in the car.

Border and documents

Austria and Germany are both in the Schengen area, so the Walserberg crossing is internal. Police checks or temporary border controls may occur there. Every passenger should carry a valid passport or national ID card, and it is wise to allow some flexibility in journey time before a flight or a train connection in Munich.

Pickup in Salzburg, arrival in Munich

We collect you from hotels, apartments and addresses in Salzburg, or from Salzburg Airport (SZG). Address pickups include 15 minutes of free waiting. In Munich we drop off at your hotel or address, at München Hauptbahnhof close to the centre, or at Munich Airport (MUC), about 39 km from the city centre.

A stop on the way

  • Chiemsee at Prien — the lake shore just off the A8, a short detour
💡 Tip: Flying out of Munich? Munich Airport is north-east of the city near Freising, so from Salzburg it is a longer drive than to the centre — about 185 km and roughly 2 hours. Give us your flight time and we plan the pickup in Salzburg with room for traffic and the border.
