The Vöslauer Hut is a wonderful place for a relaxing break in the southern Vienna Woods. The coffee is excellent and the friendly staff ensure a pleasant atmosphere. With a beautiful terrace and good food, including classic Viennese sausages, the hut invites you to linger. The view that can be enjoyed from near the Jubiläumswarte is particularly recommended, with a distant view of the foothills of the Alps and the Schneeberg. The hut hosts are always courteous and the good, down-to-earth cuisine ensures a successful hiking experience.

Rest stop at Proksch-Hütte. I visited this mountain as part of my dwarf mountain tour series (ZBT#8). My goal is to climb every mountain in the Vienna Woods. Find my tours here: https://www.komoot.de/collection/2517195/-zwergbergtouren-im-wienerwald

The Pfaffstättner Kogel is a popular destination. At its summit are the Klesheimwarte and the Proksch Hütte, both owned by the local group of the Baden Mountain Association. The Klesheimwarte, an iron observation tower, was opened on July 12, 1914 during a heavy thunderstorm with downpours. The platform is at 550m above sea level and offers a wonderful panorama. It is named after the poet Anton Freiherr von Klesheim, who died in Baden in 1884. The shelter was completed in 1930 and is named after Rudolf Proksch, a distinguished official of the Baden Mountain Club. The Rudolf Proksch Hütte, located in the middle of the Vienna Woods, was reopened on May 28, 2017 after two years of general renovation. The Proksch hut can be reached from the Beethoven long-distance hiking trail in around half an hour and is looked after by the tenants Sigrid and Peter Artner.

Unfortunately, the Veiglhütte can only be booked for private parties. Every time we walk past it, I think of the delicious bread and fruit juices, it's a shame 😥
