Refuelling on the way from Germany to Croatia

Driving from Germany via Salzburg or Villach to Croatia, you cross Slovenia on the A2 or A1 motorway. Slovenian regulated off-motorway prices are usually the lowest on the whole route from Bavaria to the Adriatic. Refuel right after the Karawanks tunnel or after Šentilj.

• Off-motorway petrol 95 and diesel prices in Slovenia are regulated and change every 14 days.
• Slovenia requires its own e-vignette; the Austrian vignette is not valid here.

FAQ

Is fuel cheaper in Slovenia than in Germany and Austria?

Yes. Regulated Slovenian off-motorway prices are usually below German and Austrian prices, making Slovenia the best refuelling stop on the way to the Adriatic.

Do I need a Slovenian vignette?

Yes. A separate Slovenian e-vignette is required for motorways and expressways.

Where is the last cheap station before Croatia?

On the A2 around Novo mesto, and on the A4 in Ptuj or Podlehnik before Gruškovje.
