 Poster: A snowHead
|
Two of us hoping to go to Scheffau in January for 5 days but struggling to find cheaper transfer from Salzburg. Is bus/train/bus or taxi cheapest way? We don't want to rent a car really, never driven in snow.
Thank you.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

We took a train today from Landeck to Zell am Ziller. Austrian trains are really good, we had one of the old style carriages with a corridor down one side and six seats in each compartment. Standing on a platform in the snow, waiting on the Vienna express was kind of cool too. Felt like we should've had some sixties spy movie soundtrack playing.

@sarah jane, taxi or bus down to Kufstein, then train to Salzburg Hauptbahnhof. Take the tram from right outside the main entrance to the airport - simples! And cheaper than a transfer service. You should be able to get an all-in-one ticket to the airport from Kufstein. http://www.oebb.at/en/ Put Scheffau am Wilden Kaiser as the departure point and Salzburg Airport as your destination

Line 2 bus from Salzburg Hauptbahnhof to the airport. 2.5 Euro per person.

Thanks Sue. I am trying to use the 0ebb website. Really for inward to Scheffau from Salzburg. Do I go to Kufstein for that as well? (Otherwise seems to say go for St Johann and then bus from there) Thanks for your help. Looking forward to the adventure and practising my German!

I recently travelled between Salzburg and Jenbach and there are certainly 2-3 stops on the way, so you may be in look there. The train to Jenbach was 38 euro, so should be about 30ish euros. If you can get a stop close by. Sorry I can't remember off the top of my head which stations we stopped at.

@sarah jane, Kufstein has more choice of trains, but a lot depends on your timings.

Thank you. Shall follow options on Oebb. Last question (really!!). Is it possible to get discount as I can see senior cards etc. there and can you get those at hauptbahnhof?
All I have to do now is read the piste maps,easy.....

Not sure what the options are or how old you have to be. Retirement here is at least 65 for both, so if you match that then worth asking!
