The regulation of the Danube between Vienna and the March from 1870 onwards exacerbated the problems of the Marchfeld population, as the Danube deepened further. The groundwater level in the Marchfeld continued to drop and bodies of water dried up. Over-exploitation of the groundwater body and official restrictions on water abstraction due to excessively high nitrate levels worsened the problem situation in the course of the 20th century. The Marchfeld became the most intensively farmed region in Austria. Between 1986 and 2004, the Marchfeld canal system, almost 100 km in total length – consisting of artificial canals and adapted streams – was finally built, with the main channel being flooded as early as 1992.

The Marchfeld Canal Cycle Path is a well-developed and popular cycling route in eastern Vienna and the adjacent Lower Austria. It runs largely directly alongside the canal and offers a consistently flat route, making it particularly suitable for everyday cyclists, families, and leisure tours. The car-free route along the canal ensures a quiet and low-traffic environment. It is bordered by green spaces, waterways, and agricultural landscapes, making it a pleasant option even on warm days. The Marchfeld Canal is an artificial waterway constructed in the 1980s and 1990s. Its primary purpose is to irrigate the intensively farmed Marchfeld region, replenish groundwater, and provide flood protection. In addition, the canal improves the local climate and creates valuable habitats for plants and animals.
