Geocache Description:

The Cache is located in the 13th district in the southwest of Vienna. It´s in the popular recreation-area "Lainzer Tiergarten" a former hunting ground of the emperor.

This cache is the first one of two caches in this area and the easier one. (See also "Lainzer Tiergarten II".)

Details about the area can be found at:
http://www.wien.gv.at/umwelt/wald/erholung/lainzertiergarten/
(in german).
You can reach the cache area by public transport. Take the underground U4 direction "Hütteldorf" till "Hietzing", and there take the bus 56B till "Lainzer Tor". Those coming by car, can park close to "Lainzer Tor" (See additional waypoint). Attention: Short-term parking from Monday till Friday.

The trail is most of it`s length a gravel walk. Strollers can be used. Only the very last meters before the cache you have to leave the way. No special equipment is needed. Length: 3 km, Difference in Height: 15 m. Opening hours: In difference to the big area of Lainzer Tiergarten this part is open for public every day at least 9 to 4.30 (depending on the season. See notice at the door!)

NB: The above difficulty and terrain rating was done with the program from geocaching.com. To be internationally comparable I`m using this result. (See the discussion in the forum also.) My personal opinion is a rating of 1.5 stars for difficulty and 2 stars for terrain.

The cache initially contains: (small container)
  • cachenote (please don´t remove)
  • logbook (please don´t remove)
  • pencil (please don´t remove)
  • some trading items

Happy caching, PlanetEarth
