The Matterhörndl is a small but impressive rock in the Vienna Woods that is perfect for a short rest. It is a little hidden away from the main path and easy to miss, but it is worth the visit. With a small opening through and the opportunity to climb around a bit, it is a mystical place for photographers, children and nature lovers.

I visited this mountain as part of my Dwarf Mountain Tours series. My goal is to climb every mountain in the Vienna Woods. Find my tours here: komoot.com/de-de/collection/2517195/-zwergbergtouren-im-wienerwald

Approx. 1.0km before the Hussar Temple, coming from the Breiten Föhre, on the right side, approx. 50m in the forest. At the junction there is a small rest area with a table and benches.
The Matterhörndl is a 10m high limestone rock that is said to be similar to the real Matterhorn in miniature.
