Cycling holiday in the Waldviertel
Refreshingly unspoilt! Cycling in the lovely Waldviertel
Varied natural cycle trails in the Waldviertel
Refreshingly unspoilt – pure and unadulterated. That’s how you’ll experience the Waldviertel while cycling. Be amazed by roaring waterfalls, moors and original natural woods! The northern part of Lower Austria also impresses with its cultural treasures, craftsmanship and cuisine.
It’s truly astonishing how authentic this region has remained. Go up and down hills on your bike or e-bike, past small lakes and along lovely river courses. The wonderfully fresh air will blow past your face as you cycle and admire the charm of this region. That’s a cycling holiday in Austria!
In line with the motto “Where we are is at the top”, the landscape of the Waldviertel has a northern influence – with a fresh breeze. You’ll find a new perspective after every bend. Look forward to speedy descents and lots of sunshine! And maybe also a jump into the cold water?
Yet a cycling holiday in the Waldviertel also has a great deal more to offer! Perfectly signposted cycle routes, side roads with little traffic, dirt roads and goods roads add some variety. And castles, monasteries and palaces can be particularly well explored on two wheels.
Boost your energy levels in magical power spots and while enjoying popular typical dishes such as traditional Waldviertel poppy cakes. Hmmmm…..!
