The route was recorded with an all-terrain stroller at a fairly fast pace. The breaks were used to take pictures for the tour description.
At a more leisurely pace, you should allow 2.5 to 3 hours for the route, during which a planned or unplanned stop at a Heurigen during the descent may or perhaps should be included.
Author’s recommendation
The view from Kahlenberg as well as from Nußberg offers a look over all of Vienna.
A stop to refresh at a Heurigen on Nußberg is worth it – however, these usually only open in the afternoon.
Derived from the technical difficulty and the stamina requirements.

The route can be interrupted at some points and the way home can be taken with public transport or the "Heurigen Express".Roadbook
The route starts at the final stop of tram line D. From there, it goes along a small creek to the Heiligenstadt cemetery. (paved) About 15 minutes after the cemetery, a forest road begins, where the condition of the road soon worsens and it is more like a wide hiking trail.
Shortly after crossing Höhenstraße at the underpass, a section of paved path begins again.
With a stroller, you should cross Höhenstraße again at the small parking lot, since the actual route of the city hiking trail leads over a bridge with stairs.
At Kahlenberg, it is advisable to take a short break and enjoy the view over Vienna.
Shortly after the summit, you reach the forest rope park – a special highlight for children but also adults. You should take extra time for this.
From the forest rope park, a wide hiking trail begins again, partly with fist-sized stones. Once you come out of the forest, you are already on Nußberg and continue walking on a paved road. (Kahlenberger Straße)
Along the city hiking trail 1 on Nußberg there are several Heurigen where you can refresh yourself after the effort.
Finally, you descend back to Nußdorf and return to the final stop of tram line D.
A large part of the ascent is in the forest and therefore shaded. The descent, especially on Nußberg, is hardly shaded by trees.
