particularly impressive from september and october, the colors of the autumn vienna forest are reflected particularly beautifully at this point. Don't forget the photo camera.

Henrietten Bridge over the Schwechat River

Highlight • Bridge

The Helenental is not only a much-sung valley, but also a wooded and shady valley through which the Schwechat river flows. Good opportunities to cool off on hot days!

Abbey Cycle Path near Heiligenkreuz

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

A really nice, gentle climb without cars just before the wonderful pen. There is a nice rest area for snacks and an inn. Always keep an eye on the slope along the way, as a few stones come down from time to time.

Vienna Water Pipeline Viaduct

Highlight • Monument

How true ! After the construction of the first Viennese high spring water pipeline (built 1869-1873), when we reached for the tap, it occurred to us that our ancestors once had to make the arduous journey with the bucket into the courtyard in order to draw water from the well in all weathers , the quality of which was often harmful to health.
Let's enjoy the best water in the world; this wealth cannot be weighed in gold!👍👍👍

You have to take the route twice, I only started the Komoot in St. Cross! 😉

Since I had arranged to meet two ex-colleagues at the Heurigen in Baden this afternoon, I went on a bike tour with another ex-colleague through the beautiful Helenental to the Heiligenkreuz Abbey 😎

Since today was one of the hottest days of the year, we were happy to drive most of the route in the shade 😛
