Stadtwanderweg 2 — Attraction in Vienna

The Vienna Woods are massive, with 20 different trails, so on a quick visit, mid-week, out of season, we picked the one that seemed to have the nicest scenery, and nailed it. On an October week day none of the wineries or restaurants were open, which was a shame, as I can imagine how great the experience would have been to have stretched this out with a long lunch with other hikers, and a nice meal or glass of wine on a warm Summer day. But this trail did have some great stretches of woodland, was mostly well marked, and didn’t include too much elevation. It took us just under 3 hours to complete, at a leisurely pace, and was easily reached with the 39a bus, which connects with the U Bahn, stopping right at the start of the walk. A nice introduction to the lovely woodlands...

Easy to access with bus 39a. Takes approx 2 hours to hike the approx 10km Wanderweg. The path is well marked in the clockwise direction, and lightly goes up and down some hills. There are a few grassy spots along the way to relax, with benches and some with children's play area.

I didn't really find any...

Der Stadtwanderweg 2 ist einer der schönsten Wiener Wanderwege: abwechslungsreiche Natur, tolle Ausblicke über die Stadt und die Habsburgwarte am höchsten Punkt Wiens. Gut erreichbar mit den Öffis, klar beschildert und mit vielen Einkehrmöglichkeiten. Ideal für alle, die Natur, frische Luft und Stadtblick verbinden wollen. Manche Abschnitte sind steiler, daher gutes Schuhwerk empfohlen. Insgesamt ein lohnender Ausflug – absolut empfehlenswert! Am Stadtwanderweg 2 liegt auch das Café Restaurant Häuserl am Stoan, ein sehr beliebtes Ausflugslokal mit Terrasse, schöner Aussicht ins Grüne und klassischer Wiener Küche. Viele Wanderer verbinden die Tour mit einer Einkehr dort – gemütlich, bodenständig und ideal für eine Pause...
