View of the Steyregger Bridge and the Voestalpine industrial area

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view of the Steyregg Bridge and the voestalpine steelworks is one of Linz's most iconic sights. The bridge spans the Danube east of the city center, connecting Linz with the neighboring town of Steyregg. From here, an impressive panorama unfolds across the sprawling industrial area of voestalpine, one of Europe's largest and most modern steelworks. The massive blast furnaces, chimneys, and conveyor systems are particularly striking, dominating the cityscape and appearing atmospherically illuminated at night.

The Danube Cycle Path and the riverbanks on the Steyregg side offer popular spots to enjoy or photograph this industrial panorama, as do higher vantage points like Pfenningberg, which provides a sweeping view of the bridge, the Danube, and the steelworks. This vista impressively combines technology, architecture, and landscape, symbolizing the industrial heart of Linz.

Pleschinger Lake

Highlight • Lake

The Peleschinger See is a bathing lake and part of the Steyregg recreation area near Linz. Located directly on the Danube Cycle Path, it is a great opportunity to take a break.
But the lake invites you to linger in all seasons. Also e.g. in the fall for a walk.
