What to expect
The Schlossberg is a tree-clad hill and the site of a fortress in the centre of the city of Graz, Austria. The hill, at 473 metres above sea level, is now a public park and affords extensive views of the city. It is the site of several entertainment venues, cafés, and restaurants. Visitors can reach the top of the hill by foot, using the Schlossberg Funicular railway, or by taking the glass lift that ascends inside the mountain. The Schlossberg has a rich history, with the fortification of the hill dating back to at least the 10th century. The clock tower and bell tower were spared after the people of Graz paid a ransom for their preservation. Today, the Schlossberg is a popular destination for families, with its stunning views, historic landmarks, and entertainment options

Activities: We explored the Schlossberg, a green hill in the middle of Graz's old town. We spent at least two hours there. We enjoyed the views, the new playground, and the 4D cinema, Schlossbergrutsche, and Märchenbahn
Highlights: The kids loved the Schlossbergrutsche, the longest indoor slide in the world. The views from the Uhrturm were also great! ✨
