Green

The green Hauptallee in the Prater

How much real green is at your door, not just on paper?

Four kilometres dead straight under chestnut trees, no cars, no crossing traffic: the Hauptallee is Vienna’s longest green corridor. The funfair buzz sits to your left, the calm of the Prater meadows to your right, and the further you walk, the more the meadows win.

Elevation↑ 1 m · ↓ 3 m · 158–160 m

About 1 m of climbing and 3 m of descent, between 158 and 160 m above sea level. Sampled every 25 m from open elevation data.

Who this walk is for

For runners, cyclists and families: if you need green every day, this is the city’s longest car-free run. The surrounding 2nd district is denser than the avenue suggests.

Good to know

Wide roads like Ausstellungsstraße and Lassallestraße sit between the housing and the park, and the funfair is loud on summer evenings. The avenue itself is car-free and calm.

Every 100 metres of the walk, sampled against wohnwahn’s data. The bars run from the start (left) to the finish (right). In short: 98% of the way feels green · well shaded by street trees · 66% quiet · very well connected.
