Description

The gentle hills, all planted with vines, the medieval character of the villages and the banks of the Danube combine to form an incomparable whole in the Wachau. Due to the mild climate influenced by the Danube, the slopes that are optimally inclined to the sun and the special quality of the primary rock soils, excellent wines thrive in the Wachau that are appreciated by connoisseurs all over the world.

The most beautiful river valley in Europe can be experienced particularly well by motorbike. Varied landscapes, vineyards artfully laid out with typical stone walls, wide plains and valuable cultural assets are offered to the observer on both banks.

The Wachau has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000.

The Weinviertel is undoubtedly one of the best known and most popular tourist destinations in Austria. And although we should steer clear of extensive wine tastings during the day, the country and its people are also a real treat. And in the evening, we treat ourselves in a Buschenschenke to all the things we had to do without during the day for reasons of celebrity.

The Mostviertel, a fertile region in southwestern Lower Austria, is really delicious. In this area we explore the scenically varied section of the Mostviertel, swinging back and forth between orchard meadows, forests and mountain trails.

Experience a few wonderful days with us on this short trip in one of the most beautiful areas on the Danube.

Day 1: Arrival at our starting hotel

Meeting point 6 p.m. at our start hotel south of Passau, in the "Bavarian Innviertel".

Day 2: Along the Danube into the Wachau

After the Volga, the Danube is the longest river in Europe with a length of 2,888 kilometres. The Danube rises in the Black Forest and flows into the Black Sea. It flows through six countries (Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia, Romania) and is the border river for another four countries (Croatia, Bulgaria, Moldavia, Ukraine). But hardly any country is as closely associated with the Danube as Austria, be it with the Danube waltz, the "Danube monarchy" or even the delicious Danube waves. It goes along the Danube until shortly before Linz, which we ride around via the beautiful Mühlviertel. At Grein we follow the banks of the Danube again until we reach our tour centre in the middle of the Wachau.

Day 3: Through the Mostviertel

The Mostviertel, a fertile region in southwestern Lower Austria, is a real treat. We swing back and forth between orchard meadows, forests and mountain trails. A varied tour awaits us via St. Pölten, Kalte Kuchl, the Höllentalstraße, the Ötscher and Scheibbs.

Day 4: The Vienna Woods

The Vienna Woods is a forested mountain region that stretches to the northwest and southwest of the Austrian capital Vienna. It is the most popular recreation area of the Viennese, the green lung of the big city. And it's a magnificent bendy area that we'll be taking a good look at.

Day 5: Through the Waldviertel and the Kamptal

In the Waldviertel we pass extraordinary cultural monuments and fascinating landscapes. It goes over well-known routes, like the Jauerling, the Yspertal, the Bärnkopf, the Dobra reservoir to Horn and over the Kamptal to Langenlois. There we will visit a wine cellar and finish the day in a Buschenschank.

Day 6: Back via Waldviertel and Mühlviertel

The name of the Upper Austrian Mühlviertel does not originate - as one might assume - from a multitude of mills existing there. No, the rivers "Steinerne Mühl" as well as "Große Mühl" and "Kleine Mühl" are said to have given the area north of the Danube its name. The tour goes via Ottenschlag, Königswiesen, Freistadt and Rohrbach back to Passau.

Day 7: Individual journey home

What are Buschenschenke?

Traditionally, a Buschenschenke is an establishment where a farmer serves his products (drinks and cold dishes). The name goes back to the old custom of hanging a juniper bouquet, the so-called "Buschen", above the entrance during opening hours. Only owners or tenants of vineyards or orchards are allowed to run a Buschenschenke. If the operator also registers a "free restaurant trade", he may serve certain warm products such as grilled sausages, meat and poultry, meat and sausage salads as well as bottled beer and non-alcoholic beverages without a certificate of competence.
