Danube Cycle Path - Vienna Region is one of highlights
- Written by Portal Editor
The Danube Cycle Path, which has been heavily frequented for several years, mostly runs on both sides of the Danube, sometimes only on one side, so that the Danube has to be crossed several times during the cycle tour.
Just the Danube crossings are a part of the highlights when traveling by bicycle and bike trailer BTurtle. The Danube Cycle Path often follows the ancient Roman road along the so-called Danube Limes, which once connected the Roman stations, castles and fortresses until the Danube Delta. This Roman road was known as Donauweg or Via Istrum.
Passau direction Vienna - the section Stift Göttweig to Bratislava
The Danube Cycle Path crosses the Vienna Basin and you can visit one of the many Marchfeldschlösser and the center of the Donau-Auen National Park at Orth. On the river terrace on the south bank lies the Roman town Carnuntum near Petronell with several excavation fields and the Heidentor. From a distance you can see the Hainburger mountains in the east near where the Carpathians begin, and get into the city of Hainburg with the Wiener- and the Hungary Gate. On the edge of the city, the route leads past the castle and Braunsberg (Celtic excavations) and the Thebner Kogel to the Hungarian Gate - the transition to the Hungarian lowlands. Immediately after the Austro-Slovak border, where the March flows into the Danube, lies Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia.
BTurtle to stay overnight - Camping New Danube
Particularly noteworthy, however, is the architecture of the Wilhelminian era, which makes the former imperial city of Vienna appear from a single source. It is precisely these who architecturally represent their affiliation to Austria-Hungary in former cities of the Danube monarchy, such as Budapest or Prague or Lemberg in the former Galicia.
The Art Nouveau has also left its mark on Vienna: Secession, the Karls Square light rail station and the Otto Wagner church on the Steinhof are among the world's most famous buildings of this era. In 1910, the Kai-Palace was also the first office tower in reinforced concrete in Austria.
An outstanding way to spend the night in Vienna can be found in the Campsite New Danube, let some peace and quiet and use the good facilities of the campsite for body hygiene extensively.
