THE BRENNERPASS ROUTE TO ITALY 🇮🇹

Read this post on TravelFeed.io for the best experience

We left Austria for a trip through the Alps. Its about 400 kilometers to the destination we are going in Italy. Driving on Saturday is never a great option, but we had no choice we had to meet our appointment. So we left after breakfast and made us ready for a 4 hour drive. Little that we know that also the Belgian people and the Germans had a summer holiday starting today. So what should have been 4 hours was 7,5 hours!! But with great scenery and a few stops due to traffic a nessecity with kids and toilets. And no I did not do #toiletthursday stops for blogs it was for the kids I promise!

We took the route along the Brennerpass. The mountain pass autostrada that is famous for travelling from Austria to Italy. Its 1375 meter high and eventhough you feel your ears its not that bad. We chose this route because we didn’t want to do the tunnel. The tunnel we normally take is along the Gotthardpass in Switserland. Than you enter Italy through the other side. Via Milan instead of Verona like we entered lake Garda now. The sights at the lake are all gorgeous and we recommend all that travel here to do a trip by car around the lake and see all the great places it has to offer and the friendliest people.

The sights and the nature are just gorgeous

The traffic as I sad was very bad. We prepared ourselves and had a good breakfast and brought some water, biscuits and candy for the trip. We needed it because the road was one long traffic jam. Again we could have known. But never stress you are with your loved ones and as long as the kids can pee once in a while ( read 3 times ) you have nothing to worry about and you will like me be grateful that you can travel and be visiting family and lovedones.

In Italy the Brenner passage is called passo del Brennero

What I learned at the stop we made is that in the European Union there is a bill pending that maybe makes it possible to travel through this part of the alps by train. I remember when I was young there was a car train and that took you to switserland, I have to look up it that is still an option.

After the brenner passage we came to the border of Italy. Finally hahahah! There you have toll roads. Roads where you pay a few euros to pass and because that is always a thing of time aswell when there is holiday traffic we came prepared. We purchased a device in the Netherlands that had to be placed behind on the front window and besides the rear mirror, to not have to pay cash at the toll roads. That was great because we didnt have to go inline and that made us drive through in just minutes instead of half an hour minimum.

Than we saw the lake, lovely lake Garda

We are here now and will stay for a while enjoying family and friends, the sun, wine and great food. Reminiscing about a great drive here with green pastures while we all got to relax.

Untill we read again,
