ヴォルフシュタールのおすすめライド

Wolfsthal is a border municipality in the easternmost part of Austria, in the district of Bruck an der Leitha (Lower Austria), directly on the border with Slovakia and just a few kilometers from Bratislava. The town is picturesquely nestled between the Hainburg Mountains and the Danube floodplains and is particularly popular with cyclists and nature lovers. For cyclists, Wolfsthal is an important point on the Danube Cycle Path and EuroVelo 6. From here, the route continues either west towards Hainburg and Vienna or east directly across the border to Bratislava – a scenic and quiet route. The route through Wolfsthal runs along fields, floodplain forests, and small settlements, offering beautiful views of the surrounding area. Also worth seeing is the Wolfsthal Parish Church, a Baroque building with a long history. A memorial in the town commemorates the history of the border region during the Cold War. Today, Wolfsthal is an open, quiet place with good connections to Bratislava (train, bus, bike) – an ideal stopover for anyone who wants to combine nature, tranquility and European history.

A quiet place for cycling

On my way down the Danube, I was able to catch my first glimpse of the silhouette of Bratislava.

Fully asphalted goods road along the railway line between Pama and Kittsee. Closed to normal traffic!

The Roman Catholic parish church of Wolfsthal stands on a slightly elevated square on the main road south of the village of Wolfsthal in the district of Bruck an der Leitha in Lower Austria.

A detour to Slovakia and further to Bratislava is definitely worth it.

A compact and very, very nice museum with the finds from the Carnuntum excavations in Bad Deutsch-Altenburg and Petronell - be sure to book a cultural education / guided tour - we had a really nice encounter with the history of the Romans in Carnuntum with many stories told.
