The Bohemian Prater

The Bohemian Prater pleasure park, a particularly family-friendly excursion destination in Favoriten, offers entertainment and recreation. It's a more tranquil place than the "big" Wurstelprater and many of the attractions are also suitable for the very young. Time seems to have stood still here in the nostalgic ambience.

The rides and dining outlets are arranged along a pedestrian zone.

Giant Ferris Wheel for children and 90 year-old rollercoaster

For children, there are small versions of a carousel, an autodrome and a Giant Ferris Wheel. The water attractions such as aqua balls, aqua bumpers and the Marine Bay are particularly popular on hot summer days. Vintage rides, such as an 90 year-old rollercoaster, have been supplemented with modern attractions.

The historical family Prater also has lots to offer on the food front: the name "Sweet Tram" reveals what it holds in store for the sweet toothed. Visitors will also find Viennese cuisine, a wine tavern and snacks for on the go.

The Bohemian Prater can look back over 150 years of history: Franz Bauer, a canteen owner of the Laaer Wald brickworks, ran a small inn here, a popular destination for Sunday outings. He set up a swing and a carousel here in 1882. Other showmen and gastronomes followed his example.
