Whether on foot or by (rental) bike, bus or train: getting around the Innsbruck region is easy, even without a car. Innsbruck’s main train station is centrally located, and the public transport network is not only well-organised but also free with the Welcome Card. This allows you to explore the Tyrolean capital and its surroundings in an environmentally friendly way. On this page, we’ll show you the various transport options available.
Getting around more sustainably
Take a tram to your destination, go sightseeing by bike or take a bus to the ski resorts. And your suitcases? You can just drop them at a luggage storage facility in town in the meantime.
Hiring a city bike is one of the most environmentally friendly and charming ways to get to know Innsbruck. Over 340 bikes are available at more than 40 docking stations.
The Winter Active Bus connects Telfs and the Mieming Plateau, providing visitors and locals with free transport to the region’s most attractive winter destinations.
E-car sharing in Axams, Götzens, Natters, Sistrans, Aldrans, Telfs, Zirl and Flaurling – with floMOBIL. Bookings are possible via the website and on your smartphone.
From July to October, the free summer activity bus takes you to the most important excursion destinations in the municipalities of Mieming, Wildermieming and Obsteig.
Your luggage can be safely stored in the City Locker Store. So you can get around without a care (or bag) in the world – for sightseeing, visiting a café or even a spontaneous trip up the mountain.
Ski fans can take the free ski bus to the slopes with all their equipment free of charge. Buses operate daily on several routes between the city of Innsbruck and the ski resorts in the Innsbruck region.
Lockers are ideal for storing travel belongings during a layover or while exploring the city – especially when they are located right at the train station.
