Hiking

Leopoldsberg Castle is a historic ruin on the hill of the same name in the Vienna Woods. Dating back to the 12th century, it now offers—along with the remains of the old castle—one of the most beautiful views over Vienna and the Danube. 🏰🌄

The Burg am Leopoldsberg, formerly known as "Burg Kalenberg", is a hilltop castle on the summit of the easternmost foothills of the Vienna Woods, the Leopoldsberg in the 19th district of Döbling in Vienna. It was a princely castle of the Babenbergs and later the Habsburgs. Wikipedia

Hiking

The castle, the chapel and the courtyard garden on the Leopoldsberg have been extensively restored in recent years. The work is not quite finished yet, but after eleven years of waiting, the area is again accessible to the Viennese. The area has been closed since 2007. Before that there was a large restaurant and a parking lot in front of the chapel, because you could enter the area by car.
