These are the kinds of cycling tours that are offered (day excursions): 

You can enjoy the most beautiful of the cycle tracks between Passau and Budapest riding in groups organized by our experienced cycling tour business partner. These excursions are on cycle and farm tracks, outside the villages and towns and mostly away from road traffic. The tracks along the river banks are very flat. The excursion leader will give you information about the routes at the beginning of the cruise.

Austria

Krems

Wien

Tour 1 –Tullner Feld (ca. 65 km)

Krems-Tulln- Vienna

 

There’s plenty of culture to absorb on the way down to Vienna in Göttweig and Klosterneuburg.  After visiting Tulln, the “bike capital”, you approach Vienna, Austria’s enchanting capital on the Danube, through the foothills of the Wiener Wald.

3

SLOVAKIA

Bratislava

Tour 2 – The Auen national park by the Danube (ca. 55 km)
Bratislava-Hainburg-Petronell-Berg-Bratislava

 

You leave Bratislava in the minibus and then cycle through one of Europe’s largest and least spoilt pasture landscapes.  The Pannonian lowlands were once the boundaries of the Roman Empire, and the excavations here from the Roman settlement of Carnuntum to Bad Deutsch-Altenburg are particularly impressive.  Hainburg has a medieval atmosphere and there are fantastic views of the Carpathian mountains.

5

HUNGARY

Budapest

Esztergom

Tour 3 – The “knee” of the Danube (ca. 55 km)
Budapest-Szentendre-Esztergom

 

The minibus takes the party from Budapest to Szentendre, which has an artists’ colony and a romantic promenade alongside the Danube.  From there you pedal northwards until you can see the fortress of Visegrád towering above the river. The final stretch takes you to Esztergom, whose basilica of the former capital of the country stands in solitary, impressive splendour above the Danube.  

7

Austria

Emmersdorf

Grein

Tour 4 -  Nibelungen and Strudengau (ca. 50 km)
Emmersdorf-Grein

 

This excursions goes first from the neat town of Melk, with its famous Benedictine abbey, to Maria Taferl  with its well-known pilgrimage church above the Danube.  Typical villages such as Marbach or St. Nikola nestle picturesquely on its banks below mountainous features.  In Ybbs you can admire splendidly restored Renaissance town houses.  The day’s cycling ends romantically in Grein, the third oldest town in the Mühlviertel district north of Linz.
