The tranquil picnic area along the Traisental cycle path invites you to a relaxing break. A rustic wooden seating area sits beneath shady trees, offering views of the Traisen river. The natural surroundings and the gentle murmur of the water make this a pleasant spot for a rest during your bike tour.

A bike trip to the government district of St. Pölten is definitely worthwhile. This modern district lies directly on the Traisen River and is easily accessible via the Traisental Cycle Path. Between the Landhaus (state government building), the Festspielhaus (festival hall), the Museum Niederösterreich (Museum of Lower Austria), and the striking Klangturm (sound tower), the largely car-free area can be comfortably explored by bicycle. Wide paths, plenty of greenery, and good cycle connections make the government district a pleasant stopover or starting point for further tours along the Traisen or towards the Danube.

Along the Fladnitz Valley Cycle Path (R8), a steel and concrete bridge with a wooden railing crosses the Fladnitz River. Directly at this point, the cycle path options branch off: the short route via Statzendorf, the longer, more challenging route via Karlstetten, and the short Kuffen Loop. All paths lead through the rolling hills and meadows of the Fladnitz Valley.

The rest area is located on the Fladnitz Valley Cycle Path, a few meters before a bridge over the Fladnitz River. A bench offers cyclists the opportunity to take a short break. From here, you have a good view of the Fladnitz Valley and the surrounding hills of Eastern Styria. Especially in the evenings, the spot offers a clear view of the sunset over the valley.

The St. Andrä Footbridge over the Traisen River was rebuilt in 2022 after the old wooden bridge had to be demolished due to flood damage and safety deficiencies. The new bridge is an elegant, approximately three-meter-wide single-span bridge without intermediate piers in the riverbed and now directly connects the districts of St. Andrä and Herzogenburg. The bridge is equally suitable for pedestrians and cyclists and forms an important section of the local cycle path network. The footbridge is particularly important for cyclists, as it offers direct access to the Traisen Valley Cycle Route and, subsequently, to the Danube Cycle Path. The crossing also provides a scenic connection to the Traisen-Danube Circular Tour, an approximately 18-kilometer route that leads through quiet towns such as Hameten and Sitzenberg to the Altenwörth power plant. The route is mostly flat, paved, and family-friendly. A rest area has been created at the northern end of the bridge, featuring a drinking fountain, seating, a bicycle service station, and a small pergola for relaxing. From here, there is an unobstructed view upstream into the natural floodplain landscape of the Traisen River, with its mature trees, meadows, and tranquil watercourse. The new bridge thus not only connects two banks but also creates an attractive place for local recreation, exercise, and enjoying nature—whether on foot or by bike.

A beautiful rest area along the Way of St. James and not far from the "Chapel Maria Ellend".
