As soon as we are talking about excursions to the Viennese Forest, all tourists think it will be a common walk along the paths and the collection of berries. However, in fact, for some 4 hours you can see two federal lands of the Republic of Austria and the Principality of Liechtenstein. Personally, I really liked this tour, because you can not only get acquainted with the history of Austria and admire the amazing landscapes of this country.
Organizational moments
Excursion to the Vienna Forest is held from Tuesday to Friday from 9.00 to 14.00. The ticket can be bought in an organized group. In total, one group can be up to 30 people. For a walk, it is better to wear sports pants or jeans and a t-shirt with a jacket. However, it all depends on the weather. It is necessary to take a passport with a valid visa and insurance policy. The total cost of an adult excursion is 55 euros, and for children up to 12 years old - 45 euros. The price includes the services of a Russian-speaking guide, bus and tasting of Austrian wines.
Excursion description
Walk to the Viennese forest begins with visits to the underground lake Zeegroot. During the Second World War, a secret aviation plant worked here. Now this is the most popular place to shoot movies. The next on our list is Liechtenstein Castle, which is located on the very edge of the Vienna Forest.
After you familiarize yourself with the amazing landscapes of the Chelental Valley, then you will be taken to the Habsburg Hunting Castle - Meerling Dynasty. It was here in 1889, Prince Rudolph and his beloved committed suicide.
And at the end of the guide will show you the city of Baden, where thermal sources are placed. Baden is the city of Mozart and Beethoven, who created their best works here. Also this city is famous for the largest casino in Europe.
