Lake Garda Arrival by Car – From door to door, our route is pretty much 700 km via the Fernpass route. Our driving time is usually 7-8 hours with normal traffic and no major breaks.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, there have been many highway construction sites all along the route for several years. The A8 in Germany has been a bottleneck near Pforzheim for years. From 2025, the Lueg Bridge near Innsbruck will also be renovated<\/a> and will be single-lane for two years. It remains to be seen to what extent the journey via the Brenner freeway will then still make sense.<\/p>\n In any case, the two most common routes are the Fernpass route through Austria and over the Brenner Pass or the Gotthard route through Switzerland. Tolls are payable on both routes, and the same applies to the use of the freeways in Italy.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||3px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Coming from the A7, you cross the border into Austria at F\u00fcssen. On the B179 we head in the direction of the Fernpass. After crossing it, follow the B189 to M\u00f6tz (take the 1st exit at the Fronhausen traffic circle \ud83d\ude09), there take the A12 freeway towards Innsbruck. From here on the route toll is due, i.e. a vignette is required.<\/p>\n Passing Innsbruck, we take the Brennerbahn A13 and then continue towards Italy on the A22. If the vacation destination is on the northern part of Lake Garda, the exit is Rovereto South. In case of heavy traffic, the alternative exit is Trento. If you are on vacation in the southern parts of the lake, you have no choice but to follow the A22 and exit at Affi.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/gardasee-inside.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Italienisches-Auto-mit-Gepaeck.jpg” alt=”Yellow speedster with luggage” title_text=”Italian-car-with-gear” _builder_version=”4.18.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n An alternative to the Fernpass is the route via Munich and Salzburg. For us, the route is unfortunately also about 70 km longer than over the Fernpass. Bypassing Munich is also not necessarily the best solution in terms of traffic…<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”5px|5px|5px|5px|false|false” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” border_width_all=”5px” border_color_all=”#fbab45″ box_shadow_style=”preset1″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The Lueg Bridge on the Brenner highway (A13) in Austria has been undergoing extensive renovation since January 1, 2025. This work is necessary because the bridge, which is over 55 years old, has reached the end of its service life. The renovation is expected to last until the end of 2030. <\/p>\n Traffic restrictions during the construction period:<\/strong><\/p>\n Due to the renovation work on the Luegbr\u00fccke bridge, considerable traffic delays are to be expected, especially during vacation periods and at weekends.
