The Ottensheim–Wilhering ferry is a traditional cable ferry across the Danube, crossing the river since 1871 and still safely transporting pedestrians, cyclists, and cars between the two banks. As an important part of the Danube Cycle Path, it connects not only towns but also past and present. Guided by a steel cable, it glides smoothly over the river, offering charming views of the Danube and the surrounding landscape. Despite new bridges and roads, it has retained its original character and remains a popular means of transport and a living piece of regional tradition.
