Grabbing the chance to experience Austria’s spectacular Albergpass

There’s little wonder that sports car and motorcycle enthusiasts head to the Grossglockner Hochalpenstrasse . But if you want to enjoy driving a motorhome with kids in Austrian Alps! Then discover the Albergpass a hidden Austrian gem not to be missed….

For those hoping to spend a few days in Austria like us, our route has seen us travel westwards from Villach through the Tauern National Park. Enjoying the Gerlos Alpine Road towards Aufenfeld, before heading onto the Stubai Glacier and then north into the mountains at Tiroler Zugspitze.

 

Before taking the spectacular Arlbergpass into the mountainous state of Vorarlberg in western Austria. An area bordered by Germany, Liechtenstein and Switzerland and known for its ski resorts and alpine scenery. ​Hopefully the below pictures do the views justice, but it’s one for the driving enthusiasts as you descend/ascend up countless hairpin bends before enjoying the views at St Christoph (tip – one of the best picnic spots we’ve enjoyed on our European Roadtrip so far…)

 

For anyone heading to Austria from the UK, there are various options but if you check our previous trips routes, you’ll see a few that we’ve tried. But we reckon it’s possible to be in Alpen Camping after 2 x 5hr days on the road south east from Calais (perhaps via Belgium’s toll free roads towards Luxembourg, overnighting in Kayserseberg, then heading east along the south of Germany towards Lake Constance before entering Austria near to Bregenz.)
