The Ottensheim-Wilhering cable ferry is a unique attraction on the Danube. It connects the towns of Ottensheim and Wilhering and is particularly interesting for cyclists as it is a popular crossing on the Danube Cycle Path. The ferry is a so-called cable ferry and moves solely through the current of the Danube. The cable ferry is a historical and technical jewel that combines tradition and innovation. It is not only a practical means of transport, but also a popular attraction for tourists and locals. The ferry not only connects the banks geographically, but also culturally the communities of Ottensheim and Wilhering. An interesting change during the tour, the beautiful view is free during the crossing, a beautiful experience. For those who usually only cycle over bridges, ferries are a very interesting thing. The crossing is a nice change during the tour and you can also enjoy a great view. The waiting time can be shortened by taking great photos.

Would really be a nice MTB path through the forest, but as of today (maybe it was different in the past?) there is a "general driving ban" on the route, so you have to push your bike here.
