Around Vienna
Mödling: old town and the edge of the Vienna Woods
How close is the Vienna Woods when you move to the outskirts?
Twenty minutes by train from Vienna lies a small town with a medieval core, and five minutes past the pedestrian zone the Vienna Woods begin. The walk leads from the station through the old town and on through the rocky gorge of the Mödling stream into the Vorderbrühl.
Getting there: 2, 207, 269 to Mödling Hauptstraße, 25 m to the start. Way back from Vorderbrühl Jägerhausgasse (265, 264), 235 m.

The route and its data

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 145 m of climbing and 67 m of descent, between 221 and 337 m above sea level. Sampled every 25 m from open elevation data.
For the city-weary who want to stay connected: a house or period flat with the forest at the door and a frequent S-Bahn. Without a car, everyday life still takes more planning.
Mödling is the outskirts: more quiet, green and space for your money, but without a car you rely on train and bus. The city is about 20 minutes away by S-Bahn.
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: 79% of the way feels green · 96% quiet · a bit off the transit grid.
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: Vienna tree register, official heat map, environmental noise map, footfall and own transit routing.
