The Mariazell Railway is more than just a means of transport; it's an experience that whisks travelers away to the picturesque landscapes of Lower Austria and Styria. Your journey begins at St. Pölten Central Station, where the modern trains – known as the "Stairway to Heaven" – depart daily. The connection to Mariazell offers not only comfort but also a stress-free way to enjoy the beauty of nature. Over a distance of 85 kilometers, the train winds its way through the idyllic Dirndl Valley to its destination, the famous pilgrimage site of Mariazell. With a travel time of approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes, passengers have ample opportunity to admire the breathtaking views. The journey climbs 619 meters in altitude, reaching its highest point in the impressive Gösing Tunnel, which, at 2,369 meters, is the longest tunnel on this route.

A bike trip to the government district of St. Pölten is definitely worthwhile. This modern district lies directly on the Traisen River and is easily accessible via the Traisental Cycle Path. Between the Landhaus (state government building), the Festspielhaus (festival hall), the Museum Niederösterreich (Museum of Lower Austria), and the striking Klangturm (sound tower), the largely car-free area can be comfortably explored by bicycle. Wide paths, plenty of greenery, and good cycle connections make the government district a pleasant stopover or starting point for further tours along the Traisen or towards the Danube.

The Viehofner Lakes in St. Pölten consist of the Großer Viehofner See and the Kleiner Viehofner See, and together form a popular local recreation area. The lakes are connected by a canal and offer a variety of opportunities for recreational activities such as swimming, boating, walking, and cycling. Well-developed cycling and hiking trails run along the shores, offering magnificent views of the water and the surrounding nature. While the Großer Viehofner See invites you to linger with its lawns, swimming areas, and restaurants, the Kleiner Viehofner See, with its reed beds and breeding grounds, is a nature reserve and provides a habitat for numerous bird species. The area thus combines recreation, sports, and nature experiences in the immediate vicinity of the city.

Free swimming, parking is subject to a fee, except in winter
