The Danube bicycle route between Passau and Vienna ranks as Europe's best-known and most-loved
cycling route - and for good reason. No other section of the river offers as diverse a range of
landscapes and cultural landmarks or as many historical sites. Tranquil valleys fertile plains
and steep vineyards line the banks of one of Europe's great rivers where pretty farms and
glorious abbeys stand side-by-side. The loop of the Danube at Schlögen the abbey at Melk and
the romantic Wachau wine-producing region are just some of the highlights along the 330
kilometer route.
