Doppelreiterwarte Viewing Tower

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Doppelreiter observation tower is located at an elevation of 919 meters on the Wolfsbergkogel mountain, on the railway hiking trail that runs along the Semmering Railway in the municipality of Semmering. Just a few minutes' walk from the "20 Schilling" viewing point, you'll once again enjoy breathtaking views of the UNESCO World Heritage Semmering Railway and the surrounding area. A train stop is located just below the Wolfsbergkogel mountain and the observation tower.

20 Schilling View

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the "20 Schilling View" viewing platform you have a fantastic view of two of the Semmering Railway viaducts and the surrounding mountains. Below the viewing platform there are several picnic tables for a break with a panoramic view. The panorama is so beautiful that it used to adorn the Austrian 20-shilling banknote.

From this point you have a great view of the 152 meter long and 24 meter high viaduct, which was built between 1848 and 1854. Due to the damp subsoil and the heavy rail traffic, the former slim structure soon had to be reinforced: the pillars on the outside were additionally provided with supports and the vaults were reinforced with inner rings.

Today, with great hiking weather, we went for a hike on the Semmering with komoot friends. We started at the Semmering train station and followed hiking routes 1 and 2 through the forest, past old villas and hotels, to the Doppelreiterwarte and the 20 Schilling Blick. We enjoyed the view of several viaducts and the beautiful surroundings.
