samo-Card Werfenweng


samo-Card Werfenweng

A few years after the first e-cars, Werfenweng presented itself with a completely new mobility concept: the SaMo card. It is available to tourists for just 10 euro, if they booked a room one of the many samo accomodations and arrived by public transportation or leave their car key at DMO during their stay. The samo card offers a comprehensive mobility package for the town.It primarily includes e-cars that can be rented free of charge. Currently, these are the BMW i3s with a range of at least 170 kilometres and 4 seats. At the same time, there are also numerous additional shuttle services that can take guests from the train station to their hotel, ski resort or other tourist destinations which are called E-LOIS.

Especially in summer, however, e-bikes are often rented, which are also available free of charge with the SaMo card. For the right portion of "fun" there are also fun vehicles such as covered bicycles and other amusing and entertaining variations of vehicles.
