    Tips

    March 3, 2024

    On the Danube, the Orther Islands are inviting bathing areas; they are located a few hundred meters downstream from the popular Orther Uferhaus. These islands were created in the flow shadow of a tail structure (hydraulic structure along the bank). Over the years you can observe the creative power of the river here. Real and original virgin forests grow on these islands in the national park. Because here the forest was never used for forestry or hunting purposes. The river has deposited colorful pebbles of all sizes and the finest river sand. In some places the water washes out the sprawling rhizomes of the white willows, numerous mistletoes thrive in the crowns of the white poplars, and lianas form dense curtains of leaves.
