View of Chemiepark Linz from the Danube Cycle Path

Highlight • Viewpoint

From the Danube Cycle Path, an impressive view opens up of the Linz Chemical Park – one of Austria's most important industrial areas and a key economic driver for the city of Linz. Numerous companies, primarily from the chemical and plastics industries, are located here, covering an area of approximately one square kilometer. Thanks to its excellent transport connections – with direct access to the motorway and rail network as well as the Danube tank port – the Chemical Park plays a crucial role in the country's industrial infrastructure.

Despite the industrial backdrop, Linz boasts a lovingly preserved old town, modern cultural offerings, and superb cycle paths along the Danube. This section of the Danube Cycle Path only briefly passes by the industrial facilities, but offers a fascinating contrast between nature, technology, and urban development – typical of the multifaceted city of Linz.

Steyregg Railway Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Steyregg Railway Bridge crosses the Danube between Linz and Steyregg and is part of the Summerau Railway. It was built between 1870 and 1873 and replaced in 1924/25 with a new truss superstructure, while the old piers were retained. The approximately 451-meter-long bridge was raised by approximately 2.25 meters and reinforced between 1976 and 1979 during the construction of the Abwinden-Asten power plant. It remains in operation today, and a double-track expansion of the line is planned.

View of the Steyregger Bridge and the Voestalpine industrial area

Highlight • Viewpoint

The view of the Steyregg Bridge and the voestalpine steelworks is one of Linz's most iconic sights. The bridge spans the Danube east of the city center, connecting Linz with the neighboring town of Steyregg. From here, an impressive panorama unfolds across the sprawling industrial area of voestalpine, one of Europe's largest and most modern steelworks. The massive blast furnaces, chimneys, and conveyor systems are particularly striking, dominating the cityscape and appearing atmospherically illuminated at night.

The Danube Cycle Path and the riverbanks on the Steyregg side offer popular spots to enjoy or photograph this industrial panorama, as do higher vantage points like Pfenningberg, which provides a sweeping view of the bridge, the Danube, and the steelworks. This vista impressively combines technology, architecture, and landscape, symbolizing the industrial heart of Linz.

View of Linz Industrial Harbor

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Danube Cycle Path only runs on the left side here, as the Linz industrial area on the right bank prevents passage.
