Hello!! It’s me again!!

So if you are in Vienna and love nature… Lainzer Tiergarten is a must!!!

It’s easy to reach, at the last stop of the U4, Hutteldorf. You arrive in a woods that is actually a park, of something like 24.50 km² of green!! It dates back to 1561, when Ferdinand I of Austria created it as a fenced-in hunting ground for his family to use. That day I was with a friend and we wanted to do a pic-nic but it actually became a backpack trip! In fact from the entrace near Hutteldorf there are path to follow to reach other places, we chose the one that takes you to the tier park and so we walked for 7 km!       It was a very nice and not to hard walk in the woods in Lienzer Tor direction! Also along the way there’s a lot of Bärlauch, which is wild garlic. So we stopped to pick it already dreaming an italian risotto with parmisean and Bärlauch (I cooked it the same evening and it was amazing!!). Be careful not to get lost picking Bärlauch and going far from the path (does this story reminds you anything? I don’t know if there are woolfs in the Lainzer Tiergarten too!!).

Of course I’m kidding! You can’t get lost and the arrival point it’s an amazing surprise! Deers and other beautiful animals are waiting for you!!
I offered him some Bärlauch but he doesn’t really like it!! After two leaves he looked at me like “I wanna real grass!!“

We became friends and I hope I’ll go soon to visit them!!
