Tree Walks in Vienna
Vienna has 5 walks that string its ancient trees together on foot, from 1.53 km to 1.94 km, past 23 trees in all. Each one is an afternoon rather than a hike, and every tree on it has a story worth the stop.
The order is ours, worked out from where the trees actually stand; the walking distance is the real one along streets and paths where we have been able to route it, and a straight line between trunks where we have not. Nothing here is a signposted trail.
