Off-Road Cycling

Hi everyone! On **Saturday, March 14**, 2026, I am planning a beautiful early-spring hike. This hike combines scenic landscapes, gentle walking, and many layers of European history in one surprisingly rich area. Our route will take us across Braunsberg, past Hainburg Castle, and through parts of the Hundsheimer Berge. As we walk, history appears naturally along the trail: remains of Celtic settlements (including reconstructed sections of a wooden palisade and watchtower), traces of Roman routes, the medieval town walls of Hainburg, and even landscapes that once formed part of the Cold War border. **What makes this hike special** 🌄 Wide panoramic views over the **Danube**, the **Marchfeld plains**, and toward **Bratislava** 🏺 Traces of everyday life in ancient times, from Celtic earthworks to Roman routes 🏰 Atmospheric **medieval walls, gates, and castle ruins** in Hainburg an der Donau 🌍 A peaceful landscape that once marked a **Cold War border**, now open and welcoming ⛰️ **Arche Noah Half-Cave** – a small rock shelter typical of the karst landscape of Braunsberg We will explore all of this at a **relaxed pace**, with time to enjoy the views, conversations, and quiet moments in nature. **Meeting Point & Travel** We will meet at **Wien-Praterstern station at 07:45am** near the ticket machines. Please arrive a little early so we have enough time to organize the group tickets. If you join the Einfach-raus-**group ticket**, please note: * The ticket requires us to **travel together on both the outbound and return journey** * If you would like more flexibility (for example leaving earlier or later), or if you arrive too late at the meeting point please **buy your own VOR Freizeit-ticket instead** The train leaves 08:15am from Wien-Praterstern and we should arrive in Hainburg by 09:26am. Trains back to Vienna run every hour and we would aim for the train back to Vienna leaving Hainburg at 17:06. **Hike Details** Duration: approx. **6 hours** (pure walking time) Distance: approx. **16.6 km** Elevation: **750 m up / 749 m down** Difficulty: **Technically easy**, but **basic fitness required** More information about the trail: [https://www.bergwelten.com/t/w/9343](https://www.bergwelten.com/t/w/9343) **Group Pace & Staying Togehter** Friendly reminder: This is a social hike, not a speed competition. We will walk at a comfortable group pace and take short breaks when needed. If you prefer to walk much faster, this may not be the right hike for you. Staying roughly together helps with navigation, safety, and group feeling. Thank you for helping create a friendly and supportive atmosphere for everyone. **Practical notes** I will send a weather update on Thursday evening to everyone who is registered. Mid-March can feel like spring — or like winter returning for one last surprise. **Please bring:** * Sturdy hiking shoes * Layered clothing * At least 1 liter of water * Your own snacks (no restaurant stop is planned) Some sections might be muddy depending on the weather. **Disclaimer** As always, this is a free private leisure activity. I am not a certified hiking guide, and participation is at your own responsibility and risk. Looking forward to seeing you on the trail! Jörg **Information regarding the ticket options** **The "Einfach-raus" Group Ticket** We will use a group ticket and it requires some coordination: * **How it works:** It is one ticket for a group of 2–5 people. We will form these groups who then have to travel together both directions at the meeting point at **07:45 - please be on time if you want to participate**. **You must travel together for both the departure and the return journey.** You cannot split off and take a different train home if you are on a group ticket. * **The Cost:** The more people in a group, the cheaper it gets. Expect to pay between €**10 and €19** per person. To be fair, we can either pay by specific group size or pool all money and split it equally. * **Cash is Mandatory:** Please bring **physical cash and coins**. We need to collect the money before buying the tickets to make sure everyone gets their change back quickly. Information regarding this ticket: [https://www.oebb.at/en/tickets-kundenkarten/freizeit-urlaub/einfach-raus-ticket](https://www.oebb.at/en/tickets-kundenkarten/freizeit-urlaub/einfach-raus-ticket) If you prefer not to be tied to a group, or if you aren't sure when you want to head back to Vienna, do not join the group ticket. Instead, buy the VOR Freizeitticket, it costs €19,90 for the day in lower Austria. This will also be your option to still join if you arrive too late for the group ticket.

Hi Running fellows, Whether you’re a walker, new to running, a semi-pro, a marathonist or a sprint star - if you want to start your weekend in an active way and enjoy the outdoors in lovely surroundings with a fun, international and multilingual group of people, you are welcome to join us! Every Saturday at 9:30 am, we meet, we run, in the magnificent Schönbrunn park, and then we go for breakfast. Want to discuss politics or the best recipes for banana pancakes? Not a problem. Not feeling social? Tune out with your earbuds - we can talk over breakfast. We are casual. You can be too. What to expect: Start by meeting Adrian, Ali, Liz, Paul and Sonia on-time at 9:30am outside the Schönbrunn U-Bahn stop (exit Grünbergstraße). (Coordinates: 48.1858130, 16.3200640) From there, we walk to the side park entrance where the “running” part begins. The important thing is that you run at your own pace. Typically, small groups of people will run at the same pace as you, so you never have to walk/run alone :) We finish one hour later, at about 10:40am, reconvening just inside the Hietzinger Tor exit. (Coordinates: 48.1858825, 16.3032647). From there, we’re off to breakfast! Breakfast Details: Anker bakery opposite the U4 Hietzing station and depending on the weather, grab something for a picnic in Schönbrunn park, or hang out in the bakery. If you missed us earlier, you can always go there around 10:45. We are a fun group of runners who don’t take things too seriously. We meet, chat, RUN, stretch, chat, EAT and we hang out over a beer every now and then. It's that easy. Please join us for breakfast after the run! The more the merrier. Typically we are 10-30 people, as not everyone who comes signs up on meetup. Important disclaimer: Please only run as much as you feel you can, considering the temperature, weather conditions, your own fitness etc... run and walk at your own pace as the organizers do not assume any liability for any injuries or health issues. Sonia, Adrian, Ali, Paul and Liz
