Bad Ischl

Emperor Franz Joseph's summer residence for 82 years, where the 1914 declaration of war was signed. The guided interior tour does not admit dogs.

A 20-hectare landscape park around the Kaiservilla, with shaded gravel avenues and the Marmorschlössl. Leashed dogs welcome on the paths, not inside the pavilions.

A cable car since 1959 up to the Katrin mountain station (1,400 m), with alpine trails and views over the Salzkammergut lakes. Dogs travel free, muzzle and leash compulsory.

The 1829 spa building, now the tourist office and cultural meeting point, fronted by the open Kurpark. Leashed dogs welcome in the outdoor gardens.

A 130 m wooded hill at the edge of town, topped by the 1885 Kaiser-Franz-Josef-Warte tower. A shaded 4.1 km circuit trail, leash recommended.

A flat, tree-lined promenade along the Traun river, linking the Kurpark, the Trinkhalle and the town's cafes. The default daily walk, on leash.
