About Renting a Car at Brixen Center

Bressanone, known as Brixen in German, is located in the heart of South Tyrol where the Eisack and Rienz valleys meet, and is an excellent base for car excursions in the Austrian Alps. From here you can reach the Brenner Pass and the border to Austria in just 30 minutes via the A22 motorway heading north, while a drive south on the same motorway takes you to Bolzano in approximately 40 minutes. Taking the winding mountain roads eastward brings you to the Puster Valley and the picturesque Pragser Wildsee in just over an hour.

Summer offers hiking and cycling trails in alpine landscapes, and in winter the area transforms into a popular ski paradise with world-renowned ski resorts such as Kronplatz within reach.

We compare prices from all major providers at Brixen Center so you can see the total cost upfront — including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
