Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Western Austria
Western Austria — a region worth exploring
Western Austria's Grossglockner High Alpine Road climbs to 2,504 metres, making it the highest surfaced mountain pass road in the country and one of Europe's most spectacular driving experiences. From the medieval old town of Innsbruck, framed by the Nordkette mountain range, to the crystal-clear waters of Lake Zell am See roughly 180 km to the east, this part of Austria rewards you with an ever-changing backdrop of peaks, valleys and alpine meadows. The region spans the provinces of Tyrol, Vorarlberg and Salzburgerland, each with its own character. You can wander through Bregenz on the shores of Lake Constance, explore the Swarovski Crystal Worlds near Wattens, or follow the Arlberg Pass road that connects Vorarlberg to Tyrol across 1,793 metres of elevation. The Inn Valley offers wide, well-maintained roads ideal for larger vehicles, while narrower routes into side valleys such as the Ötztal or Zillertal bring you closer to traditional alpine villages. Distances are manageable — Innsbruck to Bludenz is around 155 km — so you can cover a lot without long driving days. With Yescapa, you hire your campervan or motorhome directly from local owners across western Austria, giving you the flexibility to pick up a vehicle close to your starting point. Whether you prefer a compact campervan for winding mountain roads or a fully equipped motorhome for a family holiday, the peer-to-peer model means more choice and often better value than traditional hire.
Best time to visit
The best time to hire a campervan in western Austria runs from late May to early October, when high alpine passes like the Grossglockner and Silvretta are open to traffic. June is ideal for quieter roads and wildflower-covered meadows, while July and August bring warm temperatures and lively festivals such as the Bregenzer Festspiele on Lake Constance. September rewards you with golden larch forests and fewer fellow travellers. Most mountain campsites in western Austria open from mid-May, so booking early for summer through Yescapa gives you the widest choice of motorhomes and campervans from local owners — often at friendlier prices than peak-season commercial hire.
The best road trips in Western Austria
To help you plan your trip, we have selected six unmissable road trips, suitable for all travellers.
Lake Constance to Arlberg Loop

Tyrolean Inn Valley Discovery
150 km 3–5 days
A 150 km route along the Inn Valley from Innsbruck westward to Landeck, passing Hall in Tirol and the Swarovski Crystal Worlds near Wattens. Broad valley roads make this an easy drive in a motorhome, with plenty of service stops along the way.
Salzburg Lakes and Mountains
320 km 5–8 days
Covering 320 km from Salzburg through the Salzkammergut to Zell am See, this route takes in Wolfgangsee, the Krimml Waterfalls and the Pinzgau valley. Campsites with lake access are plentiful, and the mix of open valleys and alpine scenery suits both campervans and motorhomes.

What you need to know about roads and motorways in Western Austria
In western Austria you need a toll vignette for all motorways and expressways — available as a digital vignette online or at petrol stations. Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes use the GO-Box system instead. Motorhomes and campervans under 3.5 tonnes follow the same speed limits as cars: 130 km/h on motorways and 100 km/h on dual carriageways. Heavier vehicles are limited to 100 km/h on motorways and 80 km/h on rural roads. Some alpine routes, including the Grossglockner and Arlberg Tunnel, charge separate tolls. Rest areas with dedicated motorhome service points appear regularly along the A12 and A14 corridors through the Inn Valley and Vorarlberg.
Frequently asked questions
Prices on Yescapa typically range from around £70 to £150 per night depending on the vehicle type, season and equipment. Compact campervans tend to sit at the lower end, while fully equipped motorhomes with shower and kitchen cost more. Because you hire directly from local owners through Yescapa's peer-to-peer platform, rates in western Austria are often more competitive than traditional hire companies.
On Yescapa you can browse motorhomes and campervans listed by private owners across western Austria. Popular pick-up areas include Innsbruck, Salzburg and the Bregenz–Bludenz corridor in Vorarlberg. Because vehicles are spread across the region rather than concentrated at a single depot, you can often find one close to your planned starting point and save time on your first day.
Travelling in June or September rather than peak July–August often brings lower nightly rates. On Yescapa you can filter by price, compare different owners' vehicles and message them directly to discuss your trip. Booking well in advance also helps secure the best deals. Choosing a smaller campervan rather than a large motorhome is another easy way to keep costs down for a western Austria road trip.
For couples or solo travellers, a two-berth campervan is nimble enough for narrow alpine passes like the Grossglockner. Families of four or five are usually more comfortable in a motorhome with a fixed bed and dinette conversion. On Yescapa you can check berth count, vehicle dimensions and owner reviews before booking, so you can match the vehicle to both your group size and your planned routes through western Austria.
Yes — many owners on Yescapa welcome dogs aboard their vehicles. You can use the pet-friendly filter when searching to see which campervans and motorhomes in western Austria accept four-legged passengers. Most campsites across Tyrol, Vorarlberg and Salzburgerland are dog-friendly too, often with nearby walking trails. Just check any specific rules with the owner before you book to make sure everything is sorted.

Thank you, Jesús María, for one of our best travel experiences! Great communication before our arrival and warm welcome in Málaga were the perfect start to the trip. The van was fully equipped, and we had an amazing time exploring beautiful Andalusia. It was hard to say goodbye to our little home on wheels, but hopefully we’ll get the chance to take it on another adventure someday! Highly recommended! 🚐⭐️

We had a great trip and a good overall experience with Marco’s campervan. Communication with the owner was very swiftly, both before and during the rental. Campervan also met our standards and was in line with description. We were on the road for 9 days. It was our first experience driving and being on the road with a campervan and we did not experience any issues at all. The van itself was in good condition, and Marco was very available for any questions. Would definitely recommend!

The hire from Franck was perfect for our holiday in the Alsace. It was modern and spacious and very practical. The hiring experience was very easy and Franck was a great host. He assisted us with all our questions and always responded promptly. We would not hesitate in recommending this motorhome for future trips.
