View of the Wachau vineyards and Danube River memorial cross

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are many stone steps running up between the vineyards. They are primarily used by the winegrowers in this steep terrain.

Forest Ridge Trail

Highlight • Trail

Single trail through the cool forest, worn-out areas are secured with ropes. The more or less straight climb is a small challenge.

Wachau Vineyards Route

Highlight • Cycleway

The route, with moderate climbs, leads directly through the vineyards. The Danube flows some distance from the cycle path in this section, a little further down in the valley. A magnificent sight, with very, very beautiful scenery. 👌

For me, one of the most beautiful, if not the most beautiful, sections of this route through the Wachau. 🚴🏻‍♂️👌 A region with a rich and fascinating history. Simply a great tour, a relaxed bike ride while taking in the beautiful views and amazing perspectives. Highly recommended!
