Parking in Salzburg
Due to the geography of the city and the steadily growing amount of traffic, Salzburg City only has a limited amount of parking available. All parking areas in downtown Salzburg are short-term parking zones. A Tip: Leave your car at a P+R car park, then ride public transportation into the city center at a discounted fare!

In Salzburg City, four Park & Ride car parks with a total of 4,000 parking spaces are available to you year-round. The combo ticket for € 15 includes the parking fee as well as an all-day pass for use of the entire public transit system for up to five people.
