Auer Welsbach Park

Auer-Welsbach-Park is a spacious, slightly elevated park in western Vienna, known for its open meadows and gentle hills.

It feels more local than touristy, a place where people jog, walk their dogs, or sit on the grass with a view toward Schönbrunn in the distance. Being on higher ground gives the park a sense of openness and light, especially in the late afternoon.

Auer-Welsbach-Park is best for relaxed walks, casual meet-ups, and a wide green space away from Vienna's crowded center.

What it’s good for

• Long relaxed walks
• Jogging and light exercise
• Open-air meet-ups
• Watching sunsets over the city
