    The Ottensheim-Wilhering power plant is a run-of-river power plant in the Danube between the two Upper Austrian municipalities of Ottensheim and Wilhering. This Austrian Danube power plant was built between 1970 and 1974.

      Driving down the Danube, it is advisable to decide here whether you want to drive over the power plant or take the ferry (approx. 3.50 / p and bike) to Ottensheim a few kilometers later. Via the power plant, you can get past a competition route for rowers where a (junior?) World Cup took place in 2018.

      In any case, you should switch to the north side at the latest from the ferry.

      On the south side you drive into Linz without a bike lane on a busy, rather narrow main road. You miss the beautiful Rococo Wilhering Abbey.

        From the Danube Cycle Path, an impressive view opens up of the Ottensheim–Wilhering power plant, which spans the Danube at this point. The plant was built between 1970 and 1974 and is one of Austria's most important run-of-river power plants. With its clear, functional architecture, it blends harmoniously into the river landscape and symbolizes the connection between nature, technology, and energy generation. For cyclists, this section not only offers a charming view but also insight into the modern use of the Danube as an energy source.
