small, quiet, good for a break 😉

The Ennsegg bicycle ferry connects the towns of Enns, St. Pantaleon-Erla, and Mauthausen across the Danube and is particularly popular with cyclists on the Danube Cycle Path. It operates daily from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. from May to September, and until 7:00 p.m. from June to August. Crossings take place at short intervals of approximately five to ten minutes, and up to twelve people with their bicycles can be transported at one time. The ferry offers a weatherproof crossing and is also suitable for groups. This makes it a practical and scenic way to cross the Danube and connect the cycle paths on both banks.

The town of Enns is considered Austria's oldest town and boasts a rich history dating back to Roman times. The town square, with its 60-meter-high town tower from the 16th century, is the visible centerpiece, surrounded by historic town houses, the Baroque Marienbrunnen fountain, and numerous cafés with cozy outdoor seating. Enns combines medieval flair with modern quality of life and is today an attractive place for culture, events, and enjoyable breaks – especially for cyclists traveling along the Enns Cycle Path or the Danube Cycle Path. Benches, bike parking, and regional restaurants invite you to linger.

Enns is the successor town of Lauriacum, which was elevated to city status in 212.

The two-winged Renaissance castle dates back to 1588. Further renovations were commissioned around 1670 by the canons Siegbert von Geilenkirchen and Thomas von Kandlberg. It is characterized by an arcaded walkway facing the courtyard. These arcades were enclosed by outbuildings until the renovation. The rooms on the upper floor also served as the official residence of the caretaker – and thus of the courts – for a long time. The Knights of Kast occupied the castle as a summer residence. The dilapidated castle was finally purchased by the municipality of Sierning in 1969 and renovated by the Traunviertel Cultural Association and the town of Sierning. An annex was added to the building, which houses the Sierning municipal office. Following the revitalization of the castle courtyard and the installation of state-of-the-art infrastructure, including a new castle café, it is now possible to host any event. The flagship events are the summer arts and crafts market with up to 10,000 visitors, the Sierning Advent with its Advent village in the castle courtyard, and the Guard Festival. Numerous cultural events and concerts take place throughout the year, both in the castle and in the covered courtyard.

Gschwendt Castle is located in the Gries district of the market town of Neuhofen an der Krems and today houses the Upper Austrian State Retirement and Nursing Home. All that remains of the former splendor of the complex are the monumental gatehouse, the manor house (opposite), built in 1682, the hunter's lodge, and the gardener's house. The actual castle complex has disappeared. Those interested in learning more about the history of the castle can do so here: https://www.burglosenstein.at/index.php/schloss-gschwendt.html

Enns is considered the oldest town in Austria. Very pretty, nice to walk around and have a meal at the main square.

Nice section if you want to cycle from Abwinden towards Mauthausen (or vice versa). Unfortunately you then have to take the B1 towards Ennsdorf to get back onto a nice cycle path to the Mauthausen Bridge
