// THE DANUBE CYCLE PATH in austria

FROM THE ANCIENT to avant-GarDe

From where does the magical attraction towards this large, intra-European waterway originate? is it the great scenic diversity? towering forested canyons alternate with fertile plains, lush farmlands and traditional wine-growing regions.

travelling along the Danube to experience culture frequently means to dive into bygone times.

is it the many different characters of cities? the historical Bishop town of Passau contrasts with the modern cultural city of linz and the former imperial residence vienna. or, do the unique cultural monuments lure the many bikers towards the Danube?

Gorgeous Baroque monasteries and imperial residences characterize the Danube as much as the many castles and ruins from the medieval period and picturesque historical villages. it is likely the unique-like mixture of these natural and cultural heritages that is the appeal of the Danube and the Danube cycle Path.

long distance: for long-Distance travel (railjet, intercity, eurocity, euronight) a paid reservation for your bicycles, due to the limited number of parking spaces, is highly recommended.

if you would like to comfortably travel along the Danube you can combine your cycling with a cruise.

local: no reservations for bicycles in public transport (regionalzug, regionalexpress, s-Bahn) are possible. therfore, this can only be done if there are enough free parking spaces. there is no surcharge for dismantled or folding bicycles, as long as they are stowed away in the area reserved for hand luggage.

Passau is the classic starting point for a multiday tour along the Danube. if you arrive by car there are several parking possibilities in Passau for the duration of a cycling holiday: Parkplatz Passau | tel +49(0)851/50015

Please note that the parking cost has to be paid on location.

SCHLÖGEN TO LINZ

// vieWs anD insiGHts start this day’s stage with a little hike to the »Schlögener blick«, 30 minutes above the village schlögen. up here you have a marvellous view of the famous schlögener schlinge of the Danube, which is changing its direction two times into the opposite direction, and thereby creates this picturesque scene. after a short ferry ride to Grafenau you are already back on your bikes and ride along the forest slopes of this free meander.

Going past the little village of obermühl you soon reach the end of the schlögener schlinge near Untermühl, where you are again taking a short ferry trip. on a wooded rock you see the Castle Neuhaus (private property) rising up above you, whose edgy tower near the bank of the Danube once helped to close up the river with chains. a bit further down the stream, near Unterlandshaag, the route is taking you a bit upcountry through the friendly village Feldkirchen. on the one hand you can make a short side trip to the Castle Mühldorf now, which is worth a visit, but unfortunately only to be admired from the outside. on the other hand Family Outing on the Danube Cycle Path 48

you have the possibility to relax at the spacious swimming lakes located in this area, where water skiing (on a lift), buffets and a nudist beach area are offered. after a while the Castle ottensheim is welcoming you from higher up on a hill, just above a village with the same name. You have already done most of this stage – therefore you have a lot of time to discover the market place of ottensheim with its charming houses from the 16 th century. shortly after you arrive at your destination of the day: linz.

SCHLÖGEN TO LINZ

// sHiPs & catHeDrals – culture on tHe WaYsiDe Before you start this stage on the south bank of the Danube, you should walk up to the »Schlögener blick«, located 30 minutes above the village schlögen. from up here you can enjoy the wonderful view of the Schlögener Donauschlinge. after you gave yourself an overview, you will get to know the forest slopes of this free meander, called the »Donauleiten«, at close range. soon you reach the town Aschach, where a town centre with beautiful old buildings whose facades and inner courtyards come from gothic, renaissance and baroque times, is worthwhile. in the modern »Schoppermuseum« you can ind out interesting and quaint facts about the old handcraft of ship construction. and in the old church you can ind out about the alleged healing powers of the »cross of the Danube«.

most beautiful in upper austria, as the houses haven’t really been altered since the middle ages.

Despite its size, the city’s church has got the byname Eferding’s Cathedral. Just as much as this church the magniicent Castle Starhemberg with its museums and exhibitions is deinitely worth a visit. even more cultural input is given to you on the wayside through the Cistercian monastery wilhering (founded 1146) with its rococo church, its picture gallery and the monastery’s museum. Just after this wonderful lying visit at the monastery, a ferry will bring you to the north banks of the river safely, where you can enjoy your last stretch until you reach linz.

from aschach it is not very long until you reach Eferding. the history of this little city a bit aside of the Donauradweg starts way back in roman times. its main square is counted as one of the Danube Cylce Path with view of Aschach 49

LINZ TO GREIN

// Pill maKinG anD celtic tomBs the upper austrian capital linz seduces you with its variety of interesting sights to an extensive sightseeing tour: through the old town including the main square and the »landstraße«, to the Castle Museum, the botanical Garden, St. Mary’s Cathedral, the Musical theatre at the »Volksgarten«, lentos Museum and the Ars Electronica Center – just to name some of the most important sights. sure enough the »Pöstlingberg«, another landmark of the city, is going to wave goodbye when you leave. soon you pass Steyregg with its beautiful castle. its history dates back to the 11th/12 th century, but it only opens its gates for events taking place there.

Castle Greinburg 62

a bit aside of the Danube you are now biking to Mauthausen. once founded by the Babenberger as a toll booth (this is also where the name is coming from) it attained a sad popularity for being the habitat of the biggest austrian ns – concentration camp (memorial place!). in the Castle Pragstein you can learn everything you ever wanted to know

about making pills and mixing ointments, as it hosts austrias only pharmacy museum. close to Au on the Danube there is a possibility to visit the vibrant city centre of Perg, where there are many restaurants and cafes. the next halting place can be combined with a visit to the Celtic village of Mitterkirchen, an open-air museum that relects life in the year of 700 Bc. not far away you can also visit the monastery baumgartenberg, whose church is counted as a jewel of the baroque age due to its magniicent stuccowork. unhurriedly, the river is now accompanying you to Grein, the »Perl of the strudengau«.

LINZ TO ARDAGGER

// a cultural BreaK in tHe sHaDoWs of tHe citY toWer the old town with its Main Square and the »landstraße«, the Castle Museum, the botanical Garden, the Music theatre at the »Volksgarten«, the lentos Museum, the Ars Electronica Centre, the Pöstlingberg Experience – there is so much to visit in linz… if leaving is dificult for you, comfort yourself with the thought that this stage is going to have a »cultural (inte)rest« for you in enns.

Before that you share the way with the north trail of the Donauradweg until you reach Steyregg. after you crossed the river to the south bank by the power station abwinden-asten, you have two promising possibilities for a side trip: one leads you to the beautiful choir monastery St.Florian with its world famous Bruckner – organ and the altdorfer altar. the other possibility (near enghangen) leads you to Enns: this little city is full of history and is one of austria’s oldest cities, whose guided tours are a perfect way of discovering every part of the city. the remains

of the old city fortiication, the 60 meter high city tower built in the age of the reformation (16th century) and the baroque and renaissance houses on the main square enchant even-handedly. and maybe you can even pay a short visit to the roman museum and the castle ennsegg. shortly after enns you reach the lower austrian »Mostviertel« (= cider district), thus you will ind inns offering this special cider - a perfect opportunity for a break. once you reached wallsee, you are invited to look at another Roman Museum which is showing how long the history of this region really is. an eventful history, in which the Castle wallsee, once inhabited by the Habsburger- archduke franz salvator, was playing an important role. until you reach Ardagger, the destination of this stage, the mostviertel is showing you its most beautiful side.

// DONAU NIEDERÖSTERREICH The Danube lows 258 kilometers through Lower Austria, past a variety of landscapes. In the West, thousands of fruit trees lourish in the gentle, hilly Mostviertel. Onwards, the current leads through the fabled Nibelungengau and the world cultural heritage Wachau – one of the most enchanting European valleys, with an internationally renowned wine-growing region and a preferred meeting place for connoisseurs. The Lower Austrian Danube region is known for its many exquisite addresses, rustic wine cellar lanes, stylish country guesthouses with cozy inns and many award-winning restaurants.

Along both up- and down-stream a number of cultural treasures and natural beauties can be found; all worth a visit. The Grafenegg castle with its historic landscape park is a special place in the lower Danube region. Every year the castle park of Grafenegg, hosts the Music Festival Grafenegg and other summer concerts in a particularly warm atmosphere.

The beauty of the Danube Cycle Path and the most secret corners of the hinterland can be explored by 78

Bike, Segway, and E-bike both comfortably and at the same time environmentally friendly.

The subsequent Wachau, the Kremstal, and the Tulln‘s Danube regions extend all the way to Vienna.

Furthermore, the wine region Wagram, located north of the Danube, is widely known for its high quality wines.

After its trip through Vienna, the Danube reaches the Roman country Carnuntum-Marchfeld with the magniicent castles of Marchfeld, the Roman town of Carnuntum and the impressive National Park Donau-Auen: once a border to the East, now a part of new Europe.

Further information online at: www.donau.com

PromiSing route in WorLD HeritAge region WACHAu The stage through the Wachau world heritage is one of the most beautiful along the entire course.

Whether for sport or leisure – there is much to discover in the Danube hinterland: sunny wine vineyards and orchards, magniicent abbeys and castles, scenic hills and villages. Last but not least, the many culinary stations, from rustic wine taverns with cozy inns to award-winning restaurants are all worth a stop. Ferries in Arnsdorf, St. Lorenz and Rossatz offer an easy switch to the opposite Danube bank. www.wachau.at

Bike mAP tuLLner DonAurAum-WAgrAm The cycling map »Tulln-Danube region-Wagram« provides a good overview as well as detailed descriptions of the routes through the ine bike path network throughout the region. Biking along the Wagramer Explorer tours, all differently prepared, is a pure enjoyment of the countryside. Whats interesting is also, to bike along the footsteps of Egon Schiele, Franz Schubert and the Romans, and to look at the cultural heritage from a different and comfortable perspective. The Tullnerfeld bike path invites you to an ideal day trip with many cultural and culinary stops. www.tullnerdonauraum.com

// WHERE SIDE TRIPS PROMISE VIEWS Before you set off you should take a little walk – maybe even a guided tour – through charming Grein, walking across the picturesque old Main Square to the historic City Theatre, the Upper Austrian Shipping Museum or to the Castle Greinburg. Also a visit to the nearby »Stillensteinklamm« with its impressive rock formation would be a possibility.

Soon you will pass the densely wooded slopes of the Strudengau, whose name comes from the swirls in the river (called »Struden«), which used to be a problem for the mariners.

Near St. Nikola the Ruin Werfenstein rises over the Danube, where chains were thrown to the island Wörth to stop ships from going through in the past. Following the romantic »Donauleiten«, and thereby passing Sarmingstein, and Hirschenau, you will reach one of the most famous Austrian Danube Power Stations in Persenbeug, which, by advanced reservation, is open for guided tours. © klaus engelmayer 86

Two more side trips will lure you away from the Danube: Near Marbach you can, if your bike and you are ready for some uphill riding, visit the pilgrimage church Maria Taferl. At this beautiful baroque basilica you can enjoy the breath-taking view of the Danube valley.

Near Klein-Pöchlarn you can take a trip to the nearby Artstetten. In the castle you can see a documentation of Archduke Franz Ferdinand’s life. The successor to the throne, who was killed in 1914 in Sarajevo, and his wife have been buried in the crypt which is also located there. At the inal destination of this stage, Emmersdorf, the Danube Bridge allows a visit to the sights of Melk on the other side of the river.

// FROM THE BICyCLE MUSEUM TO THE CITy OF THE NIBELUNGS The town Ardagger is one of the main towns of the Mostviertel. If you are interested in culture, you can visit the church of the former monastery, which hosts the oldest igural glass painting of Austria, the »Margaretenfenster« made in the 13th century. If you prefer sports you can take advantage of the many water sports possibilities as well as the offer of the »Donauwellenpark« (=Danube wave park), which offers for example beachvolleyball or climbing walls just next to the bicycle route.

After that you are on your way through the beautiful Strudengau. The Narrow Danube valley is lined with high and densely wooded hills. Every now and then you ind inviting sandy beaches just next to the stream and little villages like Hößgang and Freyenstein put life into your journey.

Soon after the Power Station Ybbs-Persenbeug (guided tours only with advanced reservation) you will reach the little city Ybbs, where you should visit the Bicycle Museum: Starting by the wooded bogie wheel up to the »Waffenrad« out of the time

of the emperor, this museum documents your favourite vehicle.

The renaissance houses in the old city are simply enchanting, and St. Lorenz’s Church has an impressive reticulated vault as well as an organ which was signed by Mozart himself when he visited this city in 1767.

After you pass the villages Sarling, Säusenstein and Krummnußbaum you arrive at the »City of the Nibelungs« Pöchlarn, which is offering sights like the birthplace of the painter Oskar Kokoschka (exhibitions) and a Carpenter Museum. The memorial of the Nibelungs is reminding us that this little city is the site where this ancient epic is set, and also the Danube is sometimes the location of the tale. 45 short minutes later you reach Melk, the »Gate to the Wachau«.

// THROUGH THE ENCHANTED GARDEN TO A ROMANTIC LANDSCAPE As soon as you leave Emmersdorf you will ind out why the Wachau is a UNESCO protected World Heritage Site in a very impressive way: you can see mighty cliffs arise out of steep forest slopes, vineyards gently curve their way through the landscape, waves of the Danube play on sandy beaches, ruins full of history, old villages and hospitable inns line your way.

From the ancient village Aggsbach you have an excellent view to the ruins of the fortress Aggstein on the other side of the river. Legend says that terrible robber-knights met their fate in justice here. The village Willendorf became famous through an important archaeological discovery: the »Venus«. This little sculpture of a woman reminds us that this area has been populated for 50.000 years. The sculpture is now being displayed in the Museum of Natural History in Vienna.

In Schwallenbach the Middle Ages are being kept awake by some historical buildings, and shortly before you reach Spitz you will spot a bizarre rock formation: the Devil’s Wall. Legend says that the devil wanted to retain the water of the Danube with this wall.

In Spitz you are being seduced to a »cultural rest« by old wine maker houses, estates of the 16th century, a late-gothic church, the Ruin Hinterhaus and the Shipping Museum.

On the ridge of the abundant fortiied St.Michael’s Church (Community Weißenkirchen) are running rabbits – once allegedly driven up there by a heavy winter. In the Wachaumuseum of the village you can gaze at the elaborate Goldhauben – costumes.

The late-baroque parish church with its altarpieces of the so-called »Kremser Schmidts« (Martin Johann Schmidt, 1718 – 1801) is the main attraction of the village Wösendorf.

Located just next to the stream, with lovely vineyards, wooded slopes and rock formations, Dürnstein is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Austria. The blue tower of the Monastery Dürnstein is widely seen, and Richard the Lionheart was once kept prisoner in the spacious Castle Ruin. Soon after you passed the wine destination Unterloiben, you arrive at Krems, the inal destination of this stage.

// BAROqUE MONASTERy AND ROBBER-KNIGHT FORTRESS This stage is leading you along the Dunkelsteiner Forest, one of the biggest coherent woodlands of Middle Europe. The advantage of the route on the south river bank is the wide view – on the grand landscape of the World Heritage Site Wachau with its enchanting wooded slopes interspersed with rocks, hill patios and vineyards as well as the amiable villages on the other bank. Before you leave Melk, the »Gate to the Wachau« behind you, you should visit the Benedictine Monastery, founded 1089, with its magniicent library, containing 85.000 books, a ceiling fresco by Paul Troger and a fragment of the »Nibelungenlied«.

Maybe this old epic is reminding you on your way, how this area is full of history, which is also constrained by the prehistorical discoveries of Schönbühel. you traverse this village, with its gracious castle on the bank of the Danube, on your way to Aggstein, where the legendary Castle Ruin (12th Century) of the same name is luring you into going up to 300 meters in altitude. Once »Knight Schreckenwald« (a.e. Jörg Schenk), was residing here and

blackmailed the ships on the Danube into paying a toll. Those who didn’t pay had to starve to death on a kind of balcony, called the »Rosengärtlein« (Garden of Roses).

Leisurely indulgence of the landscape is in the foreground until Mautern. On the wayside you encounter little villages with charming little churches and neat old winemaker- and farmhouses as well as, near Bacharnsdorf, the remains of an old roman fortiied limes of the Danube, which has been incorporated in buildings and gardens.

named after the artist Adolf Frohner (1934–2007) Forum Frohner is located in the newly adapted former minorite monastery complex in krems-Stein. Central to its exhibiting activities is the artistic work of Adolf Frohner plus a contrast programme of temporary exhibitions of national and international artists.

© gerhard Haderer, 2015

As Lower Austria‘s international exhibition house, the kunsthalle krems navigates with its program the ield of tension that extends between 19th-century art and classical modernism, and all the way up to contemporary art, with the main focus on 20th and 21st century art.

Austrian and international contemporary art is intensively treated in solo and thematic exhibitions.

the karikaturmuseum krems occupies a special place in the Austrian museum landscape as the only museum for caricature, pictorial satire and critical graphic art. Alongside the long-term presentation of the works of manfred Deix several special exhibitions are presented, such as »gerHArD HADerer. think Big!«

KrEMs to tullN

// FROM THE CITy OF THE MIDDLE AGES TO THE CITy OF FLOWERS Krems, the city of wine, trade, purchase, culture, schools and universities, enchants by its location: Between the Danube and the vineyards of the demense Kremstal lays the old town of Krems, a part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The »steiner tor«, the town’s landmark since 1480, and the houses out of the 16th century, when protestant merchants brought wealth to Krems, remind us of the eventful history of the town. Amble through the upper and lower landstraße or pay a visit to the early gothic gozzoburg (Fortress gozzo), the Kunsthalle (Art gallery) or the Karikaturmuseum (museum of caricature).

Soon after Krems you get some new company: Wagram, a wine-growing area, whose deep loess soil is giving the »Grüner Veltliner« (white wine) its unique piquancy. In a distance you can see the Monastery göttweig, and after you crossed the Danube at the Power station Altenwörth, you ind yourself on the »Tullnerfeld«. Extensive ields and the ridge of the »Wienerwald« accompany you for some time now.

The town Zwentendorf is famous for Austria’s only nuclear power station, though it was never put into operation (guided tours only with advanced reservation). At last tulln is welcoming you: Straight at the outskirts of the city you pass the area of the GARTEN TULLN, Europe’s unique ecological horticultural show hosting over 60 show gardens and a lot of other attractions.

No other Austrian town is so dedicated to greening up as Tulln. Enjoy the beautifully landscaped Danube promenade with its fragrant lower beds and the mains square which features a baroque garden and a trinity column in the center and wonderful plants around its periphery. you are sure to ind an idyllic oases to relax in the park like river side the historic town centre.

MAutErN to KlostErNEuburg

// ExPERIENCE THE VASTNESS OF THE TULLNER FIELDS The Romans played an important role in the history of Mautern. The ruin of the roman fort of Favianis are proof for it, so is the roman Museum in the castle, which is telling you about the signiicance of this place in the ancient world, while pretty houses tell you about the blossoming of the city in the 15th and 16 th century.

If your time table allows it you can reach the benedictine Monastery göttweig on your bike in only 45 minutes. There the »Museum in the Emperor‘s Wing« shows distinguished objects of the internationally renowned arts collection of the monastery.

Passing Zwentendorf with the only nuclear power station of Austria, which has never been put into operation (guided tours only with advanced reservation), you reach tulln. you can enjoy the attractions of the city so to speak on your bicycle seat: Not only the gArtEN tullN with over 60 model gardens, the 30 meters high tree top path and the waterpark (boat rental!), also the Hundertwassership »Regentag«, the Museum of Egon schiele and his birth house, the Memorial of the Nibel-

ungs as well as the Aubad lake and Park tulln are situated very close to your bicycle route.

After Tulln the ridge of the Wienerwald is accompanying you for some time. This forest moves over to the banks of the river at the »Donauknie« greifenstein, the north foothills of the Alps. A cosy cut-off of the danube is inviting you for a very nice swim. Even more attractive is the stream bath in Kritzendorf, which you will reach soon after Hölein an der donau. Parts of this construction are still reminding you of the glamorous stream bath in the 1930s, when the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra was playing here in the pavilion on the beach.

Now you will soon reach a city that is famous for its wine: Klosterneuburg.

tullN to ViENNA

// ABOUT MODEL GARDENS, RATTERS AND LEISURE ISLANDS Explore the City of Gardens tulln by making a historical guided tour: This tour takes you to the late baroque »Minoritenkirche« and to Tulln as the Romans once knew it. In the roman Museum you can learn even more about the time, when the city was still called Comagena. A visit to the Museum of Egon schiele, a walk on the Egon Schiele-themed way or through the horticultural show will take you longer.

Alongside the extensive loodplain forest of stockerau you are now slowly approaching Vienna.

At the power station Greifenstein you could take a break from your journey to visit the local steeple, the highest one in Lower Austria, and try to scale it.

The fortresses of greifenstein, on the other side of the Danube, and Kreuzenstein, which can be seen in the distance, move closer. Soon after you went past the power station, you reach the »City of the Ratter« Korneuburg.

© Steve Haider 136

Legend says that a ratter, who has been bilked of his wage, abducted the children of the city. The

well of the ratter in front of the neo-gothic city hall is reminding us of the tale. The main square, surrounded by patrician houses, is dominated by the bulky, medieval city tower. After paying a short visit to st. August’s Church, which is decorated by a ceiling fresco of Franz Anton Maulbertsch, you leave the city – and soon you reach the commuter belt of the metropolis Vienna.

When you ferry across the river to the danube island, you inally touch Viennese soil. From 1972 to 1988 the 21 kilometres long »island« was being created as part of lood control measures and as a local recreation area of the megacity. This is the reason why you will pass inviting beaches, playgrounds and barbecue areas while you complete the last few metres of your route until you reach your destination, the North bridge.

KlostErNEuburg to PEtroNEll

// TêTE-à-TêTE OF CULTURE AND NATURE Even though the large city Vienna has a great appeal, you should take some time to take a tour through the Monastery Klosterneuburg which was founded in the 12th century. The treasury of this monastery with the Altar of Verdun from 1181 is deinitely worth looking at. Vienna is only a stone’s throw from here.

In case you don’t want to drive around the metropolis of the Danube over the North Bridge, you will soon reach the so-called »Danube Canal« on the south bank, which will lead you straight into the old town.

After you freshen up in a bicycle-friendly hotel of your choice (q.v. www.wien.info), nothing stands between you and a tour through the city. you can visit a vast variety of attractions like schönbrunn with its castle, zoological garden, palace grounds and the Gloriette, the Viennese Old Town with st. stephen’s Cathedral, the Hofburg (The Imperial Apartments, Sisi museum, treasury, Spanish Riding School), the Art History Museum, the graphic collection Albertina and the Museums-

Quartier. Furthermore Castle belvedere, the Prater with its Ferris wheel, Art Nouveau, cafés and wine taverns are anticipating your visit…

When you leave the north banks, you will reach Lobau – a part of the Nationalpark donau-Auen. This unique natural habitat for beavers, kingishers and even grey sea eagles extends to the national border of Slovakia and is one of the biggest intact meadow country sides of Central Europe. you can ind out details in the Castle orth, which you will reach shortly after Schönau. The schlossortH NationalparkCentre is housed in this pretty castle (ield trips, boat tours).

After a ferry ride on the Danube you arrive in Haslau and can pay a visit to the modern »Fisher’s Church«, subsequently you can roll towards your destination Petronell-Caruntum. Shortly before you reach this very old town, you pass its landmark, the »Heidentor«, the ruin of a triumphal monument of the fourth century. © Steve Haider 137

nortH BAnk 10 ViENNA to HAiNburg

// APPEALING CONTRASTS Vienna has offered you plenty of sights, and most probably a lot of impressions still linger in your mind: the castle and zoological garden of schönbrunn, the Viennese old town with st. stephen’s Cathedral, the Hofburg, the imperial Apartments, the sisi-Museum, the treasury, the spanish riding school, Art History Museum and MuseumsQuartier, the Castle belvedere, the Prater with its Ferris wheel, Art Nouveau, cafés and wine taverns.

But now nature is awaiting you. Even before you actually leave the city, you already ind yourself in the Nationalpark donau-Auen, which expands between the agglomerations Vienna and Bratislava like a green belt. It is a natural habitat to over 800 different species of highly developed plants, to 30 mammalian species, 100 species of breeding birds, and about 60 different species of ish.

© Steve Haider 146

If you want more details on the national park, you will ind answers a bit aside of the bicycle route in the Castle orth. The schlossortH Nationalpark-

Centre is housed in this Renaissance – Water Castle with four towers. On this »Castle-Island« you ind a meadow – experience area with an underwater–observation ward. Also placed in this castle is the museumortH, which, amongst others, dedicates itself to the regional culture. The castle Orth is among the »Marchfeld-Castles«, and soon you will get to know another one when you leave the Danube Bicycle Route at Eckartsau for a short detour to the Castle Eckartsau. This residence of the last Austrian imperial couple Karl and Zita is now used for ilms, events, weddings and concerts. From April to October you can take guided tours through the Castle, and the interactive exhibition of the national park “Wild Wechsel” will make you want to take a walk through the meadow. Near stopfenreuth another detour is advisable – out of the meadow forest to the Danube, where the platform of the »Au-Terrasse« is granting you great views of the stream landscape (camp lawn, wild game bathing area). Now it is not very far until you reach the Danube bridge bad deutschAltenburg, which will bring you to the south bank and shortly after into Hainburg.

// VIEWS AND INSIGHTS: DIVERSITy AT THE DANUBE This stage is short and easy - a good chance to unhurriedly explore the medieval city Hainburg. With its 2.5 kilometres long city wall, three medieval city gates and big towers out of the 13th century, Hainburg owns one of the oldest and best conserved town fortiications of Europe.

On top of the schlossberg you can enjoy a medieval lair as well as an impressive view inside of the vast castle ruins. But you also have a wide view (also into Slovakia) from the braunsberg at the outskirts of the city.

Near the village Wolfsthal you cross the border and soon reach the suburbs of the Slovakian capital bratislava. It offers you – as a conclusion of your bicycle tour – numerous sights:

A fortress with four towers, which burned down in 1811 and was rebuilt in 1968, is the city’s landmark and is located on a rock 85 metres above the Danube. In the old town you ind one baroque palace after the other, and in between smaller and bigger churches.

The slovakian National Museum, the National theatre and the Jewish Museum are also a part of a lot of sightseeing programs. If you want to say a proper goodbye to the Danube, your versatile companion of your bicycle tour, you should take a walk along the stream. Here in Bratislava the river banks show a lot of different facets, from bathing beaches to beach parties. And maybe you will clink glasses on your successful bicycle tour in the restaurant at the top of a bridge pier of the New bridge. Because of its shape the locals gave it its byname »UFO«.

// ABOUT OLD ROMANS AND MODERN RESTAURANTS Fans of the middle ages are enchanted by the Chapel of John the baptist in Petronell, whose romantic rotunda dates back to the Templars. A short visit in the »roman town of Carnuntum« will let you relive the ancient world. And the roman district, whose main buildings have been rebuilt, is the only one of its kind: a community centre, a magniicent city villa with furniture, underloor heating, functioning oven and a public thermal bathing construction. you also ind the old romans in the health resort bad deutsch-Altenburg. Not only in the Museum Carnuntinum, which is the centrepiece of the Roman town of Carnuntum with its old roman statues, reliefs, mosaics, coins, weapons and trinkets, but also the health spa Carnuntum, where rheumatism is being treated since antiquity. old city gates, the »Wienertor« and »Ungartor« and the isher’s gate as well as the large castle ruins give a medieval charm to the city Hainburg.

Next to the schlossberg, the Hunsheimer hill and the Braunsberg dominate the landscape. The last one mentioned offers the best view of the Danube,

the Thebener Kogel (already in Slowakia) with the fortress Devin as well as of the nearby bratislava, whose suburbs you reach shortly after the national border near Wolfsthal.

The Slovakian capital offers you – as a conclusion of your bicycle tour – numerous sights: For example the four-tower-fortress, the city’s landmark, or the Slovakian National Theatre, the old town with the Hviezdoslavovo Namestie-boulevard or the New bridge, on who’s bridge pier a futuristically designed restaurant (»UFO«) is offering a broad view.

ALREADY PLANNING YOUR NEXT BIKE TOUR? TAUERNRADWEG.COM The Tauern Cycle Path has received a 4-star rating. This 310 km long bike route takes riders from its spectacular start next to Krimml Waterfalls, alongside the Rivers Salzach and Saalach, into Salzburg City of Mozart and then on to Passau. Or maybe you’d prefer the 270 km long Tauern Cycle Path Loop between Krimml and Salzburg? Both have much in common: crystal-clear lakes, imposing natural wonders, and world-famous sightseeing attractions!

TIP:

Ride the Pinzgauer Lokalbahn railway back to the start in Krimml: www.pinzgauerlokalbahn.at
