Ski Opening including ski course

The 14 kilometers-long section of the autobahn between Golling and Werfen, which is actually the oldest chain of tunnels in Austria, no longer meets the required safety standards. As a consequence, extensive upgrades are now being made that will continue until June 2025. The construction work is affecting a 14 km stretch of the A10 between Golling and Werfen involving five tunnels in total (Ofenauer, Hiefler­, Brentenberg­, Zetzen­berg­, and Helbersberg­ tunnels). The work will be completed in three phases between September 2022 and July 2025. Construction work will pause during the summer months from July until September.

Seriously consider using public transportation instead. A number of very attractive offers and packages for travel to Salzburger Land are a great alternative to coming by car. Additional trains from Salzachtal and Enns­pongau have been running since construction began and are now integrated into the regular schedule. Public buses using the autobahn are given priority. Additional buses, such as the No. 270 express (Lungau-Eben/Pg-Salzburg), are also operating.

• The ÖBB Railjet runs every half-hour, roughly 30 times a day, from Vienna to Salzburg. The ride time is 2 hours 22 minutes.

• Since 15.12.2023, two direct connections per weekend are offered year-round from Vienna to the Pinzgau region (Zell am See, Saal­felden). During winter season (16.12.2023 – 07.04.2024) as well as summer season (29.06. – 08.09.2024), this service is supplemented by a third direct connection.
