Ottakring (16th district) – Vienna’s wine-growing & Heurige regions

No, we’re not talking about the beer – the Ottakring district not only hosts the famous brewery, it also produces some tasty wines! Once known for its “sea of vines,” the region today only hosts 6 hectares of land dedicated to wine-making – which in no way means it should be brushed off! You can taste their production in one of the Heuriger lining Ottakringer Strasse.

Bonus: this is the easiest region to get to via public transport, since most taverns are walking distance from the Ottakring U-Bahn station – so hop on that orange U3, finally meet its final station and wander your way to those wine hills.

Where we recommend you start:

Heuriger 10er Marie
Where: Ottakringer Str. 222-224
How to get there: It’s literally 3 min away from the Ottakring station (U3), tram line 44, bus line 46A.
