About this road you get compared to the official Jauerlingsstrecke reasonably comfortable to the tourist trail. Although it is on asphalt, but go out with the same altitude meters 2 rounds.

Spitz–Arnsdorf Cable Ferry

Highlight • Bridge

The crossing is always a welcome change of pace and a memorable experience. Beautiful views of the Danube are an added bonus! The cable ferry in Spitz on the Danube is a historic and fascinating mode of transport, part of the unique cultural heritage of the Wachau region. It connects Spitz with the opposite town of Arnsdorf and offers a traditional and environmentally friendly way to cross the Danube. Cable ferries have existed for centuries and were once an important link before bridges spanned the Danube. The ferry in Spitz is still in operation today to preserve the tradition and charm of the Wachau. In addition to its practical use, the cable ferry now also serves as a tourist attraction, offering a glimpse into the past. The crossing takes about 5–10 minutes and offers magnificent views of the Wachau landscape, characterized by vineyards and historic sites. The journey is smooth and allows you to experience the Danube up close. From the ferry, you have a fantastic view of the picturesque village of Spitz with its famous vineyards and historic buildings.
