Cool
Cool avenues: through Schönbrunn to old Hietzing
Where does it stay bearable in summer when the city bakes?
On hot days the palace park is another world: under the old crowns the temperature drops noticeably, and the avenues carry the shade for kilometres. The walk takes the quiet western half of the park, brushes the almost forest-like Tyrolean Garden and ends in old Hietzing, a village core with a church and chestnut trees.
Getting there: U4, 60, 10 to Wien Hietzing, 31 m to the start. Way back from Wien Hietzing (U4, 60, 10, 52, 51A), 297 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 45 m of climbing and 41 m of descent, between 191 and 234 m above sea level. Sampled every 25 m from open elevation data.
For anyone who suffers in the heat, families with prams and everyone who needs a cool escape in summer. Level, shady and easy to cut short at any point.
The palace park closes at night (around 9 pm in summer, much earlier in winter), and tourist crowds are part of everyday life near the palace and the Gloriette. The quiet corners are in the west, and Hietzing itself is among the priciest ground in the city.
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: 100% of the way feels green · well shaded by street trees · 75% quiet.
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: City of Vienna tree register, official urban climate analysis, environmental noise map, footfall and own transit routing.
