This here would be such a cool place to sit and read a book.
I think this is what is called river rapids.
Hello, I'm Herzlich Willkommen by Living in Vienna,
where we spotlight life as it happens here in Vienna.
Today we are here at Mauerbach.
I'm actually standing on it, on a rock on it.
And what a beautiful place, what a beautiful place to start our
vlog for this day.
So Mauerbach is in the 14th district and in Hagersdorf.
And so we are going to be walking along.
It's such a nice feeling here.
And I hope that you will enjoy this video.
At some point, hopefully we'll get to the point where
this Mauerbach is joining with the Wien Fluss.
And we're taking you along.
Such a beautiful, nice day.
Beautiful weather.
What more can we ask for?
Let's go, let's go.
Danke.
Starting off at Westbahnhof.
What S-Bahn?
S-50.
Take S-50 and go get off at Hagersdorf.
Okay, perfect.
Yeah, okay.
Hagersdorf.
Here we are.
Yeah, looks like a beautiful village.
Let's go.
Look at that house with flowers on the roof.
Okay, let's find the exit.
Ah, there's Gasthaus Kieschen.
Yeah, so to get here, you actually, it's within Vienna.
So that means that you can still arrive here by Vienna ticket.
Let's go here.
This has more light.
Let's follow the light.
Okay, you can go like a biker or just come up the steps here.
So we are outside the station and we will decide which direction to go.
So we are following the direction of the Mauerbach.
Yeah, and then we will see where the Windfluss is starting.
Ah, it's the 14th district.
Auerhof is the mall, yeah?
The big mall.
This is Auerhof and this is Hagersdorf.
So we are going in the direction of Hagersdorf to find Mauerbach.
That is the Mauer river.
A bach is a river.
It's a small stream.
Yeah, it's a stream.
Okay, let's find our way to Mauerbach.
So should we follow the Bahnstrasse?
We have one chance here to cross to the other side.
I would suggest let's just walk here.
I think within the next 100 meters on the right side should be the Mauerbach.
Ah, okay, let's do that.
Say hello to Hagersdorf.
So here we just cross without regard to the crossing.
This feels like a village for real.
Ah, here is the Mauerbach.
Okay, nice.
It's actually not so far away from...
I wonder where I will throw this thing that almost...
Yeah, I will find.
I think here is safe.
I don't know if it might hurt.
I hope it does not hurt nobody.
Very nice houses here.
Wow, beautiful.
So this here is the Mauerbach, yeah?
So how do we get there?
There's a crossing there.
Oh, look at these beautiful houses.
Wow.
Hagersdorf.
Yeah, information.
Let's...
Wow, this looks like such a lovely village.
This is where we are coming from.
And now we're gonna cross because we have the right of way.
Oh, sehr gut.
Ah, here is the Mauerbach.
Okay, sehr gut.
Okay, read and translate for us
while we are happy to have a look at the beautiful Mauerbach.
First of all, we are...
This is a Mauerbachstrasse.
This one that the cars are going.
And the Mauerbach is coming from there.
And this is a bridge here.
And here we go.
The first settlers in the Hagersdorf
came here in the 11th century.
And there is a lot of information.
And what a nice place to start.
The Mauerbach.
Mauerbachstrasse.
And this is us.
Let's go.
Let's keep going.
We need to cross the road.
Oh, here.
Penzing.
So the 14th district of Vienna is called Penzing.
Postgasse.
Such a nice village vibe.
Let's have a look at Postgasse.
And now we are still at...
No, this is Parkgasse.
And so this is where we will go.
Maybe this would have been...
No, let's just go here.
Oh my gosh, this is so cool.
So it says we should not go here or we should not drive here.
Let's not go.
Let's go.
We've seen people going here.
Okay, so where should we walk then?
Mauerbach.
Not here.
Okay, so we are going to try and obey the rules.
Let's...
Oh, we cannot walk along the river.
I thought I saw people walking.
And when you see the villagers walking, that means we can walk here.
Let's go.
That would have been so much adventure.
But I like the...
I like this bridge.
It's beautiful.
Do you see this bridge?
So beautiful.
Here, look.
Okay, let's go.
Yes, let's go.
I was a little bit disappointed that we couldn't go.
So let's go.
Yes, I'm H-A-P-P-Y.
I am H-A-P-P-Y.
I'm sure I'm happy.
I am H-A-P-P-Y.
I think this is such a cool place to just sit.
To just come here and sit.
You know?
Yeah, it's a very nice stream.
In the summer, I can see us sitting here with the Maasai blanket.
And having to listen to all the sounds of the birds and the cars.
Because the cars are going here.
Haunted and broken.
There!
I learned when you say Unta, you have to say Den.
This is where, when I say Unta, it comes with Den.
Ah, okay.
So we are now walking on the beach.
On the Mawabakh beach.
This is so cool.
When you talk about a river, this is what I have in mind.
I don't know what Danube is.
It's a big river.
For me, this is a river.
When they talk about paradise flowing with nice streams of river, this is it.
You know, something that is not dangerous.
Yeah.
This is, you cannot find dangerous animals here.
Thank you.
Eddie.
Eddie wants my stockings.
That's nice.
She's walking and she's reading her book.
I have never seen that before.
That's really cool.
And what a nice place to walk, anyway.
Oh, look at that house.
This one here.
It looks very nice from here.
Oh, my gosh.
We are walking along the Mawabakh.
Oh, my goodness.
Oh, wow.
First time.
Am I sleeping?
Yeah, listen to that sound.
Let me come here.
It's nice.
I will not talk.
I just want to listen to that sound.
Maybe.
Ah, okay.
Because I have the microphone.
Let me just open up the microphone.
Eddie.
I was like, what is that?
So beautiful.
This is such a nice feeling.
I want to stand here.
Let's go.
Thank you.
There's a nice bridge here.
Very nice.
Would have been nice to walk on it.
But it's much nicer too.
I mean, if this was...
Let me just bring up Africa.
If this was Africa, there would be several places with these stones to cross over.
You know?
The people would have placed stones along certain places
so that they can just cross over.
But we are happy about the bridge for sure.
It's private property.
Ah, okay.
So if we sneak in, we are going to be caught.
And this is the way that you can go up here to sneak into private property
to get to the lovely Bruke.
Nice bridge.
I cannot believe they say we cannot walk here.
Yeah, because it gets bigger.
And actually, Mawabak is the one that is feeding.
It's the one that's really feeding into Donau.
When the Donau canal or the Danube is flooded, this is what is feeding it.
No, the Vinflus is...
Which one is bigger?
I think the Mawabak.
We will see, okay?
We're about to see and prove ourselves right or wrong.
Yeah, so many places waiting for us in the summer.
There's another bridge there.
And so let me just do a look at the back.
Wow, these people who are living here.
It's the best position to have an apartment in.
The sunset on this side and the sunrise on this side.
And then Mawabak just below.
Oh, there's a tunnel that's bringing water here.
And then there's a little island here.
The island of rocks, small stones.
Peace.
Very nice.
Lovely bridge.
It's okay, calm problem.
It's really nice.
What do you think this is?
It's just an open area.
Careful.
So cool.
What could this be?
There's a bit of a dam
that's separating
the water.
Some is going here
and the other one is going there.
So only when it's so full
It's like a spa.
It has a spa feeling.
It feels like I'm in a spa
with this lovely sound
of the water.
Such a nice place to sit.
I think we have to come back here in the summer
and just sit here and read a book.
This
here would be
such a cool place to sit and read a book.
But I'm imagining
there are lots of people here
in the summer.
Or maybe people don't care
to come so far away.
I think all these people living here
must come here
to just enjoy.
What is this construction here?
What structures are these?
Damage from the water.
Ah, okay.
So it's like a
It's like a dam or what?
And I wonder what is on
that other side.
So nervous.
Now we are entering the woods.
Look at this
interesting bridge
which is closed anyway.
It's actually closed.
I think this is the reason they were saying
we should not come here.
Because how do we
This is the end of the road.
I think we should go
Yeah.
I think we should go here.
We should go here.
But how do we get there?
It's closed.
Is there a way for us to get out
from this side?
Ah, okay. It's open there.
It's open.
It's open here.
It's open. That's where they came from.
The question is
Yeah, it's open. It's really open.
I was going to ask
should we, does that mean
we should go?
Yeah, the door is open.
This looks like firewood.
And a nice seat there.
And another one here.
Yeah, look at that.
It can be closed
and when it's open
it means we go here.
Wow.
So, I think
there has been water coming up to this point.
There is the
third and the fourth.
Oh, wow.
Look at that.
Yeah.
There would be a crossing
here. I think this is
a bit of a crossing
to go across to the other side.
I'm very curious about
that other side.
I'm very curious about here.
There's a soft tree here.
There's
something going on here.
A lot of water seems to
be coming from somewhere here.
That's
a lot of water.
Okay.
What is this
place here?
Maybe have a look at the map.
Because this looks like a bigger river.
Could this be the Vinflus?
Yeah, so I think
the chances for the Flus,
the Bach, Mauerbach
to... Maybe Mauerbach
is really
the escape for
flooding.
Maybe this is what is the escape for flooding.
But I think there's
probably a reason
why there are not so many people here
in the summer. Because where
is the sun?
The sun is not on our side.
There's a path
here. Where is
it going to?
It's going up through this bridge.
It looks like such an elaborate
construction.
Is that an electricity
bus that I just saw?
This is a place you want to
come very early in the morning.
Because
the sun is already on the other
side.
Seems to be a villa here.
Hagersdorf.
Are we still in Hagersdorf?
Okay.
Hadersdorf.
I wonder if she wants to jump
to cross.
Okay, I can see where the end of
the road is.
There?
I don't think.
But how to?
I think
this girl wants to cross or what
is going on?
Okay.
For me it looks like now we are going to
a waterfall.
That's a little bit terrifying.
That's right.
It's some steps.
Maybe we'll have to walk up this way.
And go up.
Okay. It's not as terrifying
as it looked.
It felt.
But how do we get
out of here?
Okay.
Quite interesting here.
This is pretty much a waterfall.
So
we'll find out.
Okay.
There's someone who's making a photo.
Yeah.
Maybe they went up and crossed
the bridge.
Down here maybe.
Or maybe there's a way for us to go up
the bridge on this side.
Oh my god.
So.
Yeah.
This is actually quite
terrifying.
That we find ourselves here.
So maybe we need
to find out how to go up to this
bridge.
Yeah. Okay.
Still in Mauerbach.
Okay. This girl.
This is a youngster.
Risking
living life on the edge.
Living life on the
edge.
But walking back looks good.
These are called rapids.
I think this is
what is called river rapids.
Where the water moves pretty
fast. Because of a
change in...
Maybe this is where we should be crossing
anyway.
Yeah, but it's possible
to cross here I think. Because of
all the stones.
Even these are stones that can provide
some crossing.
Do you not think they went here?
Maybe let's just walk up here.
Really?
Here, we can go.
Yeah, we just have to walk back.
It's very interesting.
Yeah. I think
we just need to find one of
the bridges. Oh
God, Schatzi. Where do you
have to go to the most dangerous
place? Yeah.
I think we found
a way. We can
also go here.
But are you sure this fence... Look, Schatzi.
There is no fence.
This is not a fence.
We are going to
walk up the beautiful
river bridge.
Very...
Okay.
I had no idea.
I had absolutely
zero expectation.
I actually did not
have anything in mind
about
how it could be.
Oh. I really
like this pattern here.
Look. Look at this.
This is how they
are. Lovely.
And then we go to the normal
patterns. Okay.
Here we have a... This is
Windflussweg. Now we are in the Windflussweg.
This
weg was not built
by Schnelllager
but by
Glattis...
Glattis
Nigtgeertrouw.
I think this is the windfluss coming from here.
Aha.
Can we say this is where the windfluss is starting
or it's just... Ah, this is a
windfluss. Let's have a look
at the windfluss. Yes.
Yeah.
There is a little farm here
and there is a church.
Is that a church or it's just a building
with a cross? It's a church.
This is Vienna.
Can you imagine?
Very cool.
All this
has been done to regulate the
the windfluss.
We show you the windfluss in a moment.
Such a huge construction
here. But anyway
there is a lot to be lost
down the stream in Vienna
if that's not regulated.
I guess.
There is windfluss
and there goes the
layer of
regulation.
Yeah.
I think now we are done with Mauerbach.
Now we walk
along the windfluss.
That's right.
Let's go.
Yeah.
Now we are walking
against the sun. I mean
not against the sun.
We are showing the sun our back
and giving our
viewers the
nice side
where the sun is
shining.
This is where we were
when we got lost.
We were right here
in this little corner here.
So this is
Otto Wagner still or this is not.
It looks like
with the colours.
It's very interesting.
Never been on this
part of the world before.
But it looks like we have been
on that hill there.
It looks like
a place we have been to.
So what is the...
Is there any important information
for us from here?
Aha. This whole area.
Windflussweg.
And so where do we end up if we
walk here?
Oh my gosh.
Better to be on a bike
than...
Somebody needs to get
on a bike and be here.
Let's let him pass.
In a few seconds we are going to
be on the wonderful
lovely bridge
which my
imagination is...
Let me just imagine first.
I'm trying to think it has
steps. But very small
steps. Yeah.
What?
Means?
Okay.
Aha. There is the bridge that we are trying
to imagine.
But let's first of all
have a look at where we came from.
Anyone who is afraid of heights?
Please hold on to your chairs.
And by anyone I mean me.
Wow.
Those are the rapids that we just saw
a few minutes ago.
Let's go.
This is very challenging.
Okay. Maybe not as challenging as I think.
Yeah. Some dogs are playing there.
Yeah.
Oh. Oops. Oops. Oops.
Okay. Wow.
I don't think the dog
intended to go across the river.
It was like, okay, I'm already here.
There they are.
Yeah. Let's show the bridge.
Now they have to come
across.
Very interesting.
Wow.
Okay.
The brown one. Oh wow. The brown one is very
clever. Look at how
easy. Oh no. It's
stuck. I'm feeling so bad
for it now. And I thought
it's super clever.
When life gets hard,
just roll down and be happy.
When you're out of options.
So we have
talked a lot about these steps.
Here we are with the steps.
And it's so cool to see that
there is the way
of the... you can
put your bike here.
Oh. I want to see the dog crossing.
Where is he?
He's really looking for a way.
Oh. I feel
bad for it.
He's so playful anyway.
Oh. He remembered where he came
from.
Did he join
everybody else? Ah, there they are.
The family is
united now. Okay.
Yeah. We were there
a few minutes ago.
It's a beautiful bridge.
I think this gate has been open
for a really long time.
So this is still Mauerbach.
Which way
was the Vin? The Vinfluss
is on the other side.
Okay. So they are actually
not combining yet.
Not here. Okay.
Not yet.
Here? You want us to walk
along here? Really?
What is this fair bottom?
Okay. Let's go.
Let's go.
Are you sure there's a way
there? I'm a bit scared.
Closed.
Ah, okay.
I think...
Oh, wow. There's another bridge.
Maybe we should find a place to sit.
Yeah.
Before the sun goes down.
Wolf in the Owl.
What is that? Ah, the
station. Ah, so we
could also have gotten off from
that station. We would have missed
the beautiful part of Mauerbach.
Yeah.
Vin, Wolf, in the Owl.
Ah, here is that lovely bird.
Come before it goes.
We saw this bird at
Toukenstrands
Park.
Did you get something?
What a nice, lovely
walk in the nature
along the Mauerbach.
And we can
see the Vinfluss from here.
But this is not exactly where
they're joining. And
on my right
here is the
Vin, Wolf, in the
Owl. The station that
you can also get off from here.
We got off from the
next station, which is Hadersdorf, and we
walked along the
Mauerbach. Such a beautiful walk.
And we are
so grateful that you
have joined us all along.
And yeah, I hope you
enjoyed the lovely walk.
And until next video,
Tschüss! Wiedersehen!
Kwaheri!
Yeah, and
okay, so this
is the area
that
offers the Vinfluss
the flooding area.
I think.
So if you come here by
U4, I think you have to
get a bus to get
from Hutteldorf. Because
U4 goes all the way until
Hutteldorf, and then from Hutteldorf
you can get a bus to
this particular place. But it's so
much easier to just get
S50 from
Vespernhof.
There it is. Okay, so
Tschüss!
Yeah.
Are you sure there's no danger
at this station? And actually
if we would like we can continue
walking. We continue walking, yeah?
I was going to say we can continue
walking, and also it's possible
to get
