Vienna City Walking Trail 7 Laaer Berg

City Walking Trail 7


We both enjoyed this 15 km loop through the 10th district, which is an area we haven’t explored much previously.  The trail is an easy one to get to as it starts at the “Altes Landgut” stop on the U1. We didn’t find the start of the trail very well marked when we exited the station. You have to cross the big highway and loop around the stadium to get to the trail. I would exit and follow the route to the  Bohemian Prater. While a long trail, it was all quite flat so really easy walking. There was very little shade though so it might not be the most pleasant on a really hot day. 

This trail was full of surprises including a weird old school amusement park and a pop up petting zoo (an animal safari seems to be camped along the route at the moment so there were camels and other animals). When restaurants reopen, there seem to be plenty of places to get beer, schnitzel and other goodies. If you love langos, there were lots of stands in the Bohemian Prater selling it in all sorts of varieties. The ending portions of the hike were all along a beautiful river that felt a million miles away from the city center.
