Danube Cycle Path R1 (EuroVelo 6)

Highlight • Cycleway

The Austrian Danube Cycle Path (Donauradweg) is practically the „gold standard“ of cycle path infrastructure in Europe. As it is part of the European EuroVelo Route 6, the signage is extremely well-developed, but at first glance, it can appear a bit complex due to the different logos. At bridges or power plants, there are special signs („Donauquerung“) that show you how to get to the other side, if the route is more beautiful or shorter there.

Ausee

Highlight • Lake

The Ausee is a 23-hectare bathing lake in the middle of the beautiful Danube meadows. In addition to clean bathing fun for young and old with spacious sunbathing areas, several restaurants and shady car parks, there is a multitude of attractive leisure and sports activities, in particular two water ski and wakeboard lifts and the aqua park. The lake is widely known for its excellent water quality even in hot summers, which is guaranteed by a strong groundwater flow, a depth of 6 to 8m and an open drain. Due to the varied natural design of the banks and sunbathing areas and the separation of traffic and recreational areas, the Ausee offers an optimal recreational landscape.

Abwinden-Asten Power Plant and Lock

Highlight • Monument

You can watch ships passing the lock. Its nice to bike the Southside of the Danube until Mauthausen and there to take the small ferry to again cross to the Northside. BUT watch out the times, when the ferry is running! Only in summer.

November 2, 2024,Runde um den Ausee

Today, to compensate, we went for a brisk walk around the Ausee in pairs. 🙂 On the way back, Lukas Kaufmann cycled towards us 😃, the 2nd place winner at RAAM 2024. We recognized him immediately because we recently attended a lecture with a documentary film by him. A great personality who has remained "down to earth". 👍👍👍
