Know more about traveling from Mittersill
Absolutely, and this is one of the strongest arguments for choosing a private transfer over public transport. The Krimmler Waterfalls, the Gerlos Alpine Road, and the villages of Zell am See or Kaprun are all within easy reach and make natural additions to a Mittersill day trip. With a Daytrip driver, you can discuss the route in advance and add sightseeing stops along the way — turning a straightforward transfer into a curated Alpine journey without the hassle of renting a car or coordinating separate tickets and timetables.
Mittersill sits approximately 80 km (50 miles) southwest of Salzburg. By private transfer, the journey typically takes around 1 to 1.5 hours depending on the route and conditions, making it very manageable as a day trip. From Innsbruck, the drive is roughly 100 km (62 miles) via the Felbertauern Tunnel. Public transport options exist but typically require a combination of trains and buses with connections, which can add considerable time and complexity — particularly if you want flexibility to stop at viewpoints or visit the Krimmler Waterfalls on the same trip.
One day is well-suited to experiencing Mittersill's highlights. The town itself can be explored in a couple of hours, leaving ample time to venture into the Hohe Tauern National Park, walk to the Krimmler Waterfalls — one of Europe's tallest and most spectacular waterfall systems, located roughly 20 km (12 miles) west — or drive the scenic Felbertauern road through the mountains. A full day lets you enjoy the scenery at a relaxed pace without feeling rushed.
The Hohe Tauern National Park is the headline attraction, with trails, wildlife, and views of the Grossglockner, Austria's highest peak. The Krimmler Waterfalls are a short drive away and are widely considered one of the most impressive natural sights in the Alps. In town, Mittersill Castle overlooks the valley and is worth a stop. The Felbertauern Alpine road offers breathtaking mountain scenery and connects the region to East Tyrol. In winter, the area transforms into a ski destination with access to the Kitzbühel Alps ski region.
Mittersill is a charming Alpine market town in the Salzach Valley in Austria's Pinzgau region, sitting at the gateway to the Hohe Tauern National Park — the largest national park in the Alps. The town itself has a picturesque medieval castle, a traditional Austrian market square, and a relaxed mountain atmosphere that feels genuinely local rather than tourist-polished. It serves as the perfect base for exploring dramatic Alpine scenery, and the surrounding landscape offers everything from cascading waterfalls to high mountain passes. If you want a taste of authentic Austrian mountain life away from the crowds of Salzburg or Innsbruck, Mittersill delivers.
The national park is freely accessible on foot from multiple entry points near Mittersill, though some mountain roads and facilities operate seasonally — generally from late spring through early autumn, with snow possible at higher elevations even in summer. Comfortable walking shoes are strongly recommended if you plan to explore trails. The Krimmler Waterfalls path involves some uneven terrain and spray from the falls, so a light waterproof layer is useful. The region is quiet and relatively uncrowded compared to more famous Austrian destinations, which is a big part of its appeal.
So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
