Official city hiking trail 4
City hiking trail 4: Jubiläumswarte
From Hütteldorf up to the lookout tower on the city’s western edge.
From Hütteldorf the trail climbs through forest and across meadows to the Jubiläumswarte: from the platform the view spans the whole city and far into the countryside. In between, quiet forest roads on Vienna’s western edge.
Getting there: 49, 47B to Wien Rettichgasse, 15 m to the trailhead. Way back from Wien Hüttelberg (47B), 344 m.
The official route and its data

About 230 m of climbing and 186 m of descent, between 222 and 447 m above sea level. Sampled every 25 m from open elevation data; walking time uses the standard hiking formula (4 km/h plus 300 m of climb per hour).
For view collectors and anyone curious about Penzing: the trail shows how quickly you get from the U4 into the woods.
The climb to the tower has to be earned, and the tower itself has open stairs: not for wobbly knees. The official route includes a short connector along the road.
What changes along the way
Every 200 metres of the trail, sampled against wohnwahn’s data. The curves run from the start (left) to the finish (right). In short: 81% green along the built-up stretches · 100% quiet · 230 m of climbing.
Values are 0 to 100 per 250 m residential cell. Forest and fields have no cells, so the profile honestly pauses there; curves only appear once they cover at least half the trail. Source: official heat map, environmental noise map, green-space proximity, footfall and own transit routing.
