Sleeping in your vehicle or a tent in Austria
- 🚐 In the vehicle: Allowed with real exceptions — depends on the place. Austria — it varies by Land, sharply. Tirol, Kärnten, Burgenland and Vienna ban camping outside campsites by statute; Vorarlberg and Salzburg only where the local council has said so. Tirol's law expressly exempts stopping to restore your fitness to drive. Fines €600 to €21,000, and removal at your cost.
- ⛺ A tent outside a campsite: It depends entirely on which Land you are in, and two of the most-repeated claims online are wrong. Tirol, Kärnten, Burgenland and Vienna ban camping outside campsites by statute; Vorarlberg and Salzburg do NOT — there it takes a local decision. Fines run from €600 in Tirol to €21,000 in Vienna. Alpine bivouacking above the huts is expressly exempt in Tirol and Kärnten — but no statute anywhere mentions a tree line or an altitude, so that rule of thumb is folklore, not law. (Tiroler Campinggesetz 2001 §3; Kärntner NSG 2002 §15; Bgld NSchLPG §12; Wiener NSchG §17)
