• Green areas: About 60 % of the districts area is green land, mainly due to the Vienna Woods in the north and west. Hernals is therefore one of Viennas greenest districts (3rd place in terms of green share) – parks like Schwarzenbergpark or Schafberg make the district a paradise for nature lovers.
• Town and village: Hernals was created in 1892 by the incorporation of the suburbs Hernals, Dornbach and Neuwaldegg. This origin can still be felt today: in the eastern part (Old Hernals) dense Gründerzeit architecture with classic rental houses predominates, while the western part (Dornbach, Neuwaldegg) is characterized by villas, old village centers, heurigen and lots of greenery. This unique mix gives the district a diverse character.
• Transport connections: The transport connections are excellent. In addition to the already mentioned Tram 43 and the U6 at the Gürtel, Hernals has its own S-Bahn station (suburban line) for fast connections across Vienna. In the future, Hernals will be even better connected: the new U-Bahn line U5 is planned to be extended to Elterleinplatz. This will bring the district even closer to the city for commuters.
• Leisure and culture: Hernals has a lot to offer for leisure. The traditional Jörgerbad (an indoor and outdoor pool) invites you to relax in summer and winter. Every year the Kalvarienberg Market (Easter market) takes place around the Kalvarienberg Church – one of Viennas oldest traditional events.

And gastronomically you are well served thanks to the proximity to Yppenplatz with its colorful Brunnenmarkt – multicultural flair and trendy venues included.
