air travel to niederau
Innsbruck airport is the most convenient for travel to Alpbach, but both Munich and Salzburg airports are also easily accessible through the excellent motorway connections to Wörgl.
Innsbruck
Airport
Niederau can be reached by a 30 minute journey along the Inn valley to Wörgl and then another quarter of an hour's drive up into Wildschönau and to Niederau. Oberau is another five minutes' drive away, while Auffach is probably closer to 15 minutes. Train connections to Wörgl from the centre of Innsbruck are also excellent.
Innsbruck has a wide selection of charter flights which mainly arrive on the weekend, as well as a good choice of scheduled flights including some of the low-cost carriers to the UK and Vienna.
Salzburg
Airport
Salzburg Airport is less than two hours away from Niederau. There is a choice of routes: one uses the road through the "German corner" near the airport and then via St Johann in Tirol to Wörgl and the entrance to the Wildschönau. In snow this can be a slow route - an alternate choice is to use the German motorway to the junction with the Munich-Inn valley motorway north of Rosenheim.
Munich
Airport
Munich Airport is situated under two hours away from the Wildschönau. The airport is situated to the north of the city, and the motorway network bypasses Munich to the east and then heads down to Rosenheim, where it joins up with the motorway from Salzburg, and the border at Kufstein.
