Danube Cycle Path Passau - Budapest
Along the beautiful Blue Danube, one finds Europe’s most famous cycling path: Passau to Vienna. Discover a wonderful landscape, picturesque villages and the numerous impressive sights from the Roman and Nibelungen times. Schlögener Loop, Strudengau, Nibelungengau and the Wachau (UNESCO Region) all have their own unique and alluring attractions. You will cycle along the Danube through gorgeous landscapes of rolling hills, forests and meadows. Art and cultural aspects show and tell stories from long ago. One of the many highlights included on this tour is the “City of the Music”, Vienna.
The Slovakian capital Bratislava is a diverse city with a picturesque old town and is a “must-see” on the way to Hungary. The Hungarian metropolis Budapest, one of the most beautiful cities in Europe, is the crowning conclusion to your journey. This tour offers a pure and cultural experience mostly set away from touristy centres and is “off the beaten path”. Untouched nature, less than well known artistic features and cultural monuments can be found on the route between Vienna and Budapest.
