Car Rental at Innsbruck Airport (INN)

Winter season drives up prices at Innsbruck Airport considerably, especially around Christmas and school holidays. Summer, on the other hand, offers better prices and a wider selection. Innsbruck Airport (INN) is just 4 km west of Innsbruck's center and takes you there in under 10 minutes by car.

With 15 rental agencies on site, you'll easily find a vehicle that suits your trip to Tyrol. The airport is the gateway to the Alps and a perfect starting point for ski resorts like Sölden (90 km) and St. Anton (100 km).

From the airport, you can reach Brenner Pass and the Italian border about 35 km south via A13. Innsbruck's historic old town center with the Goldenes Dachl is 4 km away, and the Patscherkofel ski area can be reached in 20 minutes. Road B171 towards Inntal Valley opens up all of Tyrol.

Book four-wheel drive if you travel November–April – Alpine roads require winter tires and often snow chains. Avoid picking up your car during ski season peaks (January–February) without a pre-booked vehicle. Fuel tip: gas stations along A12 towards Kufstein are cheaper than at the airport.

How far is Innsbruck Airport from Sölden? Approximately 90 km to the south via A12 and B186, which takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes depending on road conditions. Do I need winter tires for car rental in Innsbruck?
