Stowage album for Corpus Christi: traffic chaos on all highways!

Stowage album for Corpus Christi: traffic chaos on all highways!

Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Deutschland - The extended weekend around Corpus Christi, which is celebrated on June 19, 2025, moves many travelers to the south of Germany and beyond. According to ÖAMTC a strong volume is to be expected, especially on the motorways in and around Bavaria. Many holidaymakers will start their short vacation from Wednesday, which leads to a plump program on the streets.

Brenner motorway, Inntal motorway and Tauern motorway are becoming the main causes of traffic jams, especially on the Tauern Autobahn (A10) near Golling, where a tunnel construction site significantly affects traffic. Significant delays can be expected in the large rooms of Innsbruck and Salzburg. But also the Rheintal Autobahn (A14) in Vorarlberg and the Brenner Autobahn (A13) are among the potential traffic jams.

return travel and traffic jams

The return trip of travelers who spent their Pentecost holidays in the south will reach their climax on Saturday, June 21. Longer waiting times can be expected at the motorway crossings, especially at the Bavarian border crossings such as Suben, Walserberg and Kiefersfelden. In particular the ADAC reports overfilled from the Pentecostalia, but also the celebrations around Corpus Christi considerably heat the traffic.

The motorways in Munich-Salzburg (A8), Inntaldreieck-Kufstein (A93) and the route to Garmisch-Partenkirchen (A95/B2) are classified as particularly vague. The long -distance road to Zillertalstraße (B169) has also put the nerves to the test in the past.

traffic impairments through events

The location of the traffic situation is potentiated by local events, such as the Gaisberrennen in Salzburg, which takes place from June 19 to 21. Road barriers in the old town and on the Gaisberg Landesstraße are to be expected here, which indicates ADAC . The Danube Island Festival will also attract many visitors this coming weekend, where a journey with Park & ​​Ride and the use of public transport is recommended.

ÖAMTC traffic jams Herbert Thaler will be on the Tauern Autobahn from Saturday to inform drivers about current traffic situations. In addition, the ÖAMTC recommends planning your own route with the help of the fuel price database in the route planner in order to find the cheapest petrol stations. Knowing where there are full closures and traffic jams can require a good hand.

As we see, the weekend around Corpus Christi will not only prove the Czech travel sense of many southern Germans, but also for the skills of road users to find their way in the densely crowded traffic. Good trip and a lot of patience!
