Semmering Railway Hike

8 hours

Moderate

Hiking the Vienna Alps via the world's oldest mountain railway in the Semmering mountains.
Visiting Austria and not seeing the alps would be a great shame, not least because they make up such a large part of this alpine nation. That's why we've made it easy to see them in a day from Vienna. We'll hike the route of the world's first mountain railway, the UNESCO listed 'Semmeringbahn', completed in 1854. Breathe alpine fresh mountain air and take in soulful views in Lower Austria's highest region. Suitable for railway, nature & hiking enthusiasts alike, our tour gets you out of Vienna and into the wild.

From beautiful alpine vistas to marvelous viaducts and bridges intricately woven into the mountain landscape. This section of the Semmering Railway is a photographer's dream and one of the best places to go hiking near Vienna. So join us as we guide you safely through the hills and forests - no organization, stress, nor clock watching required. Disengage your brain and plug into nature instead!
