 Biking to Austria's borders |
Vienna, Vienna Austria +43 (0)1 2 4555 (Tourist Information) |
If the wind is on your side (blowing down the Danube) why not plan a grand cycling tour? Wherever you start, you should join the northern bank at the Steinspornbrücke. The Lobau begins near the Ölhafen (harbour) with a wonderful riverside landscape. The way is well signposted, even with signs for restaurants and sights. Eckartsau and Bad Deutsch Altenburg are nice for small excursions. The distance from Vienna to Hainburg is about 60km (40 miles). After rest and recuperation in Hainburg, you can travel back to Vienna either by bike, or by train to Landstraße station (Wien Mitte). Review © 2007, Wcities |

Cycling along the Danube Canal |
Throughout the City Vienna, Vienna Austria +43 1 21 1140 (Tourism Board) |
The Danube Canal, for a long time neglected, now boasts a fine cycle path. The path starts near the city centre and leads north to Klosterneuburg. The path meets the Danube near Nußdorf and continues past steep slopes and through forests to Klosterneuburg, where cyclists could round off their trip with a refreshing swim in the lake - or with a refreshing beer in one of the Heurigen taverns! Energetic cyclists could then head on to Greifenstein, Melk, Linz or Passau. Review © 2007, Wcities |
