Easy Hiking Trails near Vienna

There are 60 hikes near Vienna in our database that fit. They average 4.2 km and 60 m (197 ft) of ascent.

That is 32 percent of the 188 routes we map near Vienna. They are shorter than the local average, 4.2 km against 29.3 km, which is what makes this a practical shortlist for a half day. They also climb less than the area average, 60 m (197 ft) against 374 m (1,227 ft), so they suit a recovery day or a group with mixed fitness.

Easy routes keep both distance and climbing modest, so they work for a first day in a new area, for family groups, or for a half day when the weather is uncertain. Most of these are on the gentler end, which makes the list a good starting point if you are new to the area. A good share of them are loops, so you can park once and finish where you started.
