    In summer, it's a sweaty affair to walk up the steps to the clock tower. But with every bend you get a different view of the city. The Kriegssteig is one of the many paths up the mountain that you should definitely walk at least once.

      "The war trail, built during the First World War, leads up the mountain with 260 steps. When climbing this path, visitors should consider their own fitness and take breaks if necessary. The way down from the castle hill via the many steps is also a challenge. Many people have weak knees when they reach the foot of the castle hill again.

      As part of a winter closure, the steps at the entrance and at the gates are closed."

        Here the 260 steps of the Kriegssteig lead up to the top of the mountain. On the other hand, if you want to take it even easier on a group trip to the Schloßberg in Graz, you can also reach the hill with the Schloßbergbahn. This overcomes 108 meters in altitude at a leisurely pace and, through its glass roof, offers a stunning view of the west of Graz and of the nature around the city's local mountain. There is also a lift at Schloßbergplatz, which takes you through the interior of the mountain to the summit in 30 seconds. The Schloßberg slide, opened in 2019 and at 64 meters the highest indoor slide in the world, also winds its way around the Schloßberg lift.
