Up the Landstraße, from the Volksgarten to the main square
What is life like on the axis half of Linz moves along?
The Landstraße is Linz in one line: at the bottom the music theatre by the Volksgarten and the rough station quarter, then department stores, café terraces and trams by the minute, at the top the Taubenmarkt and the baroque main square. Walk this axis and you have crossed the city from arriving to strolling.
Getting there: S5, S3, WB1-W to Linz/Donau Hauptbahnhof, 73 m to the start. Way back from Linz/Donau Hauptplatz (2, 1, 4, 3, 50), 21 m.

The route and its data
The coloured line is the walk, routed on the real pedestrian network. Toggle a data layer, or tap anywhere on the map to see trees, noise, heat and travel times for that exact spot.
Tap the numbered stops for what makes each spot special, or tap anywhere for the full “what’s here?”.
Every 100 metres of the route, classified from the real data: green spaces, the official noise map, footfall.
About 2 m of climbing and 6 m of descent, between 260 and 263 m above sea level. Sampled every 25 m from open elevation data.
For anyone set on central, car-free living: on and beside the Landstraße everything is walkable. The walk shows honestly how loud the axis itself is, and how quickly the side lanes fall silent.
The Landstraße stays busy late, and around its lower stretch the station quarter shows its rough side too. Quiet living means moving one lane off the axis.
What changes along the way
Every 100 metres of the walk, sampled against wohnwahn’s data. The bars run from the start (left) to the finish (right). In short: well shaded by street trees · 82% quiet · very well connected.
Values are 0 to 100 per 250 m cell. Parks and water have no residential cell of their own, so those stretches read the nearest neighbourhood. Source: Linz tree register, heat model from surface sealing, environmental noise map, footfall and own transit routing.
