The Marchfeld Canal near Engelhartstetten is an interesting destination on a cycling tour through the eastern Marchfeld region, especially for those interested in hydraulic engineering, nature, and tranquil landscapes. The canal is part of the larger Marchfeld Canal System, which was constructed in the 1990s to divert water from the Danube to the agriculturally dominated Marchfeld region. The system replenishes groundwater, enhances the ecological value of the area, and facilitates agricultural irrigation. Around Engelhartstetten, the canal winds through a peaceful, flat landscape dotted with small woods, windbreaks, and scattered settlements – ideal for cycling away from traffic. Gravel and asphalt paths run alongside the waterway, connecting towns such as Stopfenreuth, Engelhartstetten, Groißenbrunn, and Markthof. Along the way, cyclists will encounter scenic sections with bridges, locks, and small wetlands that provide habitats for numerous bird and amphibian species. Information panels along the canal explain the technical and ecological concept of the project. As a tranquil, waterside route, the Marchfeld Canal in the Engelhartstetten area is ideal for leisure cyclists, families, and nature lovers – especially in combination with the Danube-Auen National Park and the former March border with Slovakia.

A very easy-to-ride cycle path with varying terrain, from loose ground to hard-packed gravel, cycle paths, and short single trails. There is plenty of tree cover along the canal, providing plenty of shade, yet there are still views of the fields of the granary.

"But perhaps the time is not yet ripe for this (...) lest one day they bring misfortune upon each other and their peoples. And if they should do so anyway, may the good Lord in his counsel decree that at least afterwards, when the disaster has already been done to them all, they will find their way back to one another and make peace once and for all in this world." writes Otfried Preußler (who preferred to call himself a storyteller) in "The Flight to Egypt. Royal Bohemian Part." While these lines originally refer to the German and Czech inhabitants of the Kingdom of Bohemia, formerly part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, their message is both timeless and universal.

Beautiful long gravel paths but also suitable for gravel bikes ATTENTION ⚠️ often very windy
