Travelling to Italy:
your journey to exclusive
wellness bliss

The route from the north takes you along the A12 Inntal motorway from Kufstein, the A13 Brenner motorway from Innsbruck, over the Brenner Pass, and onto the A22 Brenner motorway in South Tyrol. Please note that a toll sticker (“Vignette”) is required for the Austrian sections. This can be easily purchased online in advance. Italian motorways are also toll roads, with tolls payable directly at the toll stations upon exit. Alternatively, private providers offer electronic toll options.

To ensure a smooth journey, we recommend checking traffic conditions in advance and planning accordingly. Up-to-date information for the South Tyrolean section of the Brenner motorway is available on the official websites of the “Verkehrsmeldezentrale” (South Tyrolean Traffic Information Centre) and the A22 Brenner motorway.

Starting from 01.01.2025, the Lueg Bridge on the A13 Brenner motorway near Gries am Brenner will generally be limited to single-lane traffic due to renovation work.
