Car Hire Reviews Innsbruck

  • “The pick-up was easy, it took 5 minutes from arriving at the desk to driving out the car, and the return took even less time.”

Where to go

Once you’ve started up the engine of your rental car, you can begin exploring what Innsbruck has to offer. With the Alps so nearby, you can start your ski trip as soon as you arrive in Innsbruck. The mountains also offer great hiking and climbing trips during the warmer months so there is always something to do.

Nearby Innsbruck

Innsbruck is surrounded by picturesque and quaint old Austrian towns and villages, where you can really take in the culture of the country. You can drive to Vols or Zirl, both straight along the A12 from Innsbruck. You could also head across to the Tux Alps, a subgroup within the range, and take in the majesty of the mountains.

Longer drives

Using the B177 road, you can head around the mountains and find Naturpark Karwendel, a nature reserve in the Alps. If you’re interested in seeing more of Europe, you can drive across to Germany and visit the Bavarian city of Munich. If you’re lucky enough to be visiting around Christmas time, you can see the world-famous markets.

Eating and drinking

Austria is known for its comfort food: hearty stews and soups. Schnitzel is a favourite, which you can follow up with a piece of strudel for dessert. The country has evolved, though, and you can find delicacies no matter your preference. You can then end your night in a classy wine bar.

Things to do

Entertainment in Innsbruck is largely dominated by the skiing industry, but there are plenty of things to do if you’re not a master of the slopes. The Altstadt von Innsbruck is a charming square full of places to try the local cuisine or have a warming drink.

Sightseeing

You can visit the Imperial Palace to imagine what life was like before WWI for emperors and empresses. Inside, the ballroom is stunning and opulent. If you love history, you can also see the Hofkirche, the tomb of Emperor Maximilian. Then you can stop by the most famous balcony in Innsbruck to see the Golden Roof.
