Cycling the Danube

The Danube is Europe’s second biggest and second longest river and it also runs around Vienna. It has a great cycling path along its shores and we decided to try it. On a sunny (and windy) autumn day, we took the train from Vienna (with our bikes) to a town called Tullnerfeld to the north west of the city. It took 15 minutes to get there and we started our Sunday cycling excursion from there. We cycled through fields towards the river and then alongside the Danube back to Vienna. It was a tour of 52km and a really great day out. Easy to cycle, spacious path, flat with many restaurants and huts along the way to take breaks and enjoy the view. Our legs were tired at the end, but we thoroughly enjoyed our active outing and can whole heartedly recommend cycling the Danube Cycling path!!
