Gasteiner Alpenstraße
This scenic road is approx. 7 km in length and goes through numerous tunnels at Böckstein (Nassfeld) up to 1600 metres above sea level to Sportgastein.

Tolls are already incorporated in a valid ski pass as part of the Alpine winter sport offer. Tolls for cross-country skiers, who are travelling by ski bus, are paid by the tourist office as part of ‘SANFTEN MOBILITÄT’. This means that cross-country skiers do not have to pay anything at the tollbooth.
