Viennese outdoor pools in summer ready for bathing boom and heat protection!

Favoriten, Wien, Österreich - The summer weather in Vienna has brought the outdoor pools back into the foreground. Year after year, the anticipation for the bathing season is unbroken. But what does the balance say this year? According to Meinzirk.at there was a mixed start of the season, which was opened in May 2023. It is noted, however, that the Viennese baths have already seen over 807,000 bathers since then, which represents an increase of 24 % compared to the previous year.

The citizens' interest was rather steamed at the beginning, but with the weather improvement, more and more Viennese and tourists are drawn to the urban outdoor pools. Jürgen Czernohorszky, the climate and bathing city councilor, emphasizes the importance of outdoor pools as heat protection partners, especially for children and adolescents.

attractive admission prices for all

A great advantage of the Viennese outdoor pools are the affordable admission prices. For adults, the price is 7.60 euros, while children up to 6 years can swim free of charge. For children between the ages of 7 and 14, admission only costs 2.60 euros. Young people between the ages of 15 and 18 pay 4.30 euros, and with a bonus card that comprises 10 entries plus 3 free of charge, visits to children between 7 and 14 years cost only 2 euros per visit.

The city has a total of 30 outdoor pool locations that are well prepared for the upcoming bathing boom. In addition to the swimming pools, the systems offer generous green areas, shady spaces to relax and numerous sports facilities such as soccer and volleyball spots and water playgrounds. In addition, there is an attractive animation and cultural program at many locations that ensures entertainment.

security has the top priority

An important topic, especially in times when uses increase, are the security measures. As part of the “First Responder” program, the staff is trained in dealing with conflicts and harassment. In addition, the Viennese police cooperates closely with the outdoor pools to increase the safety of the bathers, such as wien.orf.at reported.

The outdoor pools in Vienna are more than just swimming points; They are an important part of the city's social life. Summer can come with a wide range for young and old and a strong focus on safety. The foresight for the coming days are friendly, and the Viennese outdoor pools are ready for another hot summer!
