 | Badgastein Transportation | Tips 1 - 6 of 6 |  |
Those who travel to Bad Gastein from the South, i.e. through Carinthia, will find that the most direct route is through the railway tunnell.
Between the stations of Mallnitz and Boeckstein there is a regular service of special trains that carry cars.
They are scheduled every hour (every 30 minutes on weekends in the high season). The train can carry many cars and there are no reservations to be made.
If you want to use this train, you must be at the station at least 5 minutes before the time of departure, and queue at the toll gate, when your turn comes you pay the fee (17 euro per car), the passengers go directly to the passengers' wagon while the driver parks the car on the train. Then he/she joins the passengers because remaining inside the cars during the journey is forbidden.
The whole procedure is simple and fast, but it is important to know in advance all the rules, especially the size limit of vehicles (max height is m 3.7, max width m 2.1). Leave a Comment

 Katschberghöhe after rain by robertgaz
Katschberghöhe is a popular winter sport resort but there are also many great hiking trails to be enjoyed during those warm summer months. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home

To give you an idea of the rates (up-dated in 2007) a transfer from the station to some place within the town costs EUR 6. A collective taxi to Salzburg Airport EUR 30 per person.
In the website you will find the online forms, in English, to ask for quotes and make reservations. Leave a Comment

 The station by Manara
It is nice to look at the timetable of trains, because they show also their further destinations: Venice, Croatia, Belgrade ... It gives a cosmopolitan feeling to this little station. Leave a Comment
