Austria Travel

Hi I have a few questions which I am going to list down here. Look forward to feedback on all

1) Which is the easiest way to go to Grossglockener High Alpine Road?
2)How long is the drive?

3) My daughter has travel sickness (especially on long winding roads).Do I need to consider any medication if travelling to that route
4) We have been planning to travel in between cities Vienna -Salzburg, Salzburg-Innsruck and Innsbruck-Vienna by train. Will it be cheaper if we could hire a car and drive it on our own?

On #4, you can easily compare prices yourself on line. It's impossible to say since you give no information about the duration of your trip, how many people, etc. If you are doing a lot of travel and are a group of 4 or more it might be cheaper to drive yourself. If you are Travelling to each city with the intent to spend several days there and parking the car, it will probably be cheaper to use the train.
I will say you won't need or even want a car while you are in Vienna.
Train travel is pretty cheap between the cities you list.

you can answer number one by following the link just above, but since you asked us, number one is impossible to answer without knowledge of your starting point.

But not knowing that, I would say that the absolute easiest might be helicopter if you get the permits in advance. Other than that, probably car since it is a road, or perhaps motorcycle.
