Toll-free
to the Wilder Kaiser region
The route section from the German border to the motorway exit Kufstein South has been toll-free since 15 December 2019. This means that you can travel to the Wilder Kaiser region without a great Vignette sticker!
Vignette toll stickers are mandatory on all Austrian motorways. A 10-day toll sticker costs €9.40 for cars and €5.40 for motorcycles. The toll sticker is available at almost all petrol stations and motorway service stations near the border. Coming from the north, the "Kiefersfelden" motorway service area is the last opportunity to buy a toll sticker.

Save CO2 when driving by:
- reducing speed

- switching off the engine during breaks and traffic jams
- driving smoothly in the low-speed range
- a weight-saving loading of the car
- doing without energy guzzlers such as an air conditioning or heated seat
