How to reach Heidenreichstein

Driving is the easiest way to visit Heidenreichstein. From Vienna, the town is a 2¼-hour drive to the northwest over 88 miles (141km) of good roads.

It's also possible to reach Heidenreich by public transportation from Vienna. You have two options:

Take the 1155 bus from central Vienna to Mattersburg and switch to the 1833 bus at the latter's Hauptplatz (main square).

Take the train (intercity or S-Bahn) from the Vienna-Süd station to Mattersburg (this frequently involves a train change at Wiener Neustadt), then walk five minutes from the Mattersburg station to the Mattersburg Fa. Austria bus stop where you can catch the 1833 bus.

Total travel time by public transportation is about 1¼ to 1¾ hours, depending on your route and departure time.

To plan your route, enter "Wien Sud" and "Heidenreich" in the interactive journey planner of the Austrian Federal Railways.
