The Danube Cycle Route

The Danube Cycle Route is one of the most popular long-distance cycle routes in Germany and is also the most popular long-distance cycle route abroad. And that is by no means surprising, because the Danube flows through ten countries and connects a variety of different cultures and landscapes.

This is precisely what makes the Danube Cycle Route so interesting and appealing. On a cycle tour along the Danube, you can marvel at the natural spectacle of the Schlögener Donauschlinge or the fascination of the Wachau as well as the many castles, monasteries and cosmopolitan cities that line the banks of Europe's second largest river.

Not only are the landscapes and nature reserves along the Danube rich in species and diversity, but the metropolises that have sprung up along the ancient waterway could not be more different. From the modern cultural city of Linz, to the old imperial cities of Vienna and Budapest, to the historic bishop's city of Passau, everything is here.

Enjoy the Danube Cycle Route in a relaxed and uncomplicated way with a combined bike and boat trip. At the beginning of the journey, you will move into your comfortable cabin on board a river ship and can really make yourself at home there, as the ship will accompany you on the entire journey. There is no need for tiresome luggage packing and luggage transport. After a hearty breakfast, you can actively explore the Danube Cycle Path by bike. In the evening, your ship and a hearty cyclist's dinner await you at your destination and you can relax with a drink in the ship's own bar and lounge. Should the sun deck be more tempting than the bicycle saddle, you can simply stay on board and enjoy your journey there.
