How to get to Großarl: by car, by air and parking

Großarl sits in Salzburgerland (Großarltal-Dorfgastein), Austria, at 849–2033 m. Getting there mostly comes down to altitude and whether you're driving or flying in — here's the practical part.

Getting to Großarl by car

With 849–2033 m of elevation, the access road often requires winter or M+S-rated tyres, and snow chains can be mandatory on heavy snow days. Check road conditions before you drive up and build in extra time for the last few kilometres of mountain road.

Getting to Großarl by air

Look for flights into the international airport closest to Salzburgerland (Großarltal-Dorfgastein), Austria, then a transfer or rental car to the resort.

Parking in Großarl

Most resorts have paid parking right by the lifts and free options a bit further out with a shuttle. Arriving early on busy days (weekends, holiday weeks) is the difference between parking right at the slopes or walking quite a bit further.
