The Best Fitness Gyms in Vienna - Vienna4u.at (2024)

For many of us, regular exercise is just as much part of our daily routines as posting an update on social media or grabbing a coffee to go is. And while it is great to feel the sun on our skins when we take (some of) our workouts outside during the warmer months, the often windy, grey and drizzly Viennese winters make having a membership in a gym practically a necessity.

Fortunately, there is a true wealth of sports and fitness centres that can be found all throughout the city, and we would love to introduce you to some of our favourite places to move, relax, and stay fit here:

Club Danube

The sports center chainClub Danuberuns three large clubs throughout Vienna. Each location offers slightly different sports opportunities, but all of them cover ball sports, functional fitness, group fitness, personal training, and wellness.

This fitness chain operates in the mid-price range and regularly offers special prices, as well as reduced fees for students, big groups and companies.
