The experience
About this quest
Meet a sea admiral without a sea, a giant wheel that survived a war, a nine-metre magician, the smallest republic on Earth and a railway built for giants' children. A playful, family-friendly adventure for anyone who still knows how to wonder.
Is this for you?
Who it's for
Parents visiting the Prater with younger children get a short, story-led walk past its quirkiest landmarks, from the giant wheel and a nine-metre magician to the tiny Kugelmugel republic and the Liliputbahn. It is free to play, covers 1.4 km in around 80 minutes, and keeps the puzzles playful. Families wanting the city-centre sights or a live guide to question should pick another route.
