Most tourists and locals prefer an on-foot walk. There are some small benches to rest and satisfy picturesque panorama. This memorable boat is called “Boot des Verspechens” (Boat of promise). In 1985 Arnold Schwarzenegger took a boat here and moved to the center of the lake with Maria Shriver, his girlfriend and proposed her to become his wife. The most tourist-known site here can be noticed from a distance. Another site of the place is a boat rental station on the right hand, where you can take a boat and take a ride over the lake. It includes a hotel and “Talersee” café-restaurant with a magnificent view over the lake and forest. We can see the tree-store building just next to the bus stop and on the very bank of a lake. Talersee is a beautiful lake in Thal Austria, where Arnold Schwarzenegger grew up. So, we have already got to Arnold Schwarzenegger’s hometown birthplace and just 5 minutes from Arnold Schwarzenegger Museum. You can’t miss it – you will see the Talersee lake twenty meters ahead. In any case, to get to Thal we need to make a stop at Talersee. In one case, as a final stop and another one – transit. Ten meters ahead we see another bus stop №48. We run till the final stop Goesting (with this bus №40) – about 20-25 minutes’ way. It will be enough to get to Thal Austria, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s hometown. You go inside the bus and buy a ticket from the driver – the appropriate one is called Stunden Cart – it means that you can use and switch transport within one hour. You will just need to find local bus № 40 – it stops just in front of Macdonald’s. The bus from Vienna arrives in Graz 200 meters away from the main city square, called Jakominiplatz. The journey will take you 2 hours and 25 minutes. The Vienna-Graz destination is on a daily basis.

You cannot miss this big green bus on FelberStraBe street just near the railway station. I’ve taken FlixBus from Westbahnhof station in Vienna at 8.30 a.m.

The bus is the cheapest way to get there from Vienna. Thal, a small rural village near Graz city is a part of Styria Bundesland on the southeast of Austria. Speaking about Arnold Schwarzenegger Hometown and Museum, we mean his birthplace in Thal Austria.
