Travel by train from Klagenfurt to Vienna

The Koralmbahn: more connections and faster journey times.

Vienna, Austria’s vibrant capital, captivates with imperial flair, modern architecture and a unique cultural scene. From the magnificent buildings on the Ringstrasse and St. Stephen’s Cathedral to the museums in the Belvedere district, the city offers countless ways to combine culture, history and indulgence. Vienna is also a culinary highlight, whether at a classic coffee house or enjoying regional specialties at one of the popular markets.

With the opening of the Koralmbahn in December 2025, numerous new direct connections will take you from Klagenfurt to Austria’s capital, Vienna, conveniently and in a climate-friendly way. Reduced journey times and modern trains round off the expansion of services on the new Southern Line. Upon arrival at Vienna Central Station you can expect seamless transfers to the extensive public transport network as well as to the international rail network.
