Summary:
The view over Graz was great, but also the clock itself. You can walk up the hiking trail but also take a lift up. Once at the top there is a great coffee with beautiful views. At the top is another castle. Those who need thrills can slide down a slide. There is also fun for children in the mountain. So my conclusion, it was a great Attraction in Graz.
