A lovely spot for a break when the weather is nice.

From the banks of the Danube, you can enjoy a view of the Abwinden-Asten power plant, one of the largest run-of-river power plants in Austria. The facility extends over 252 meters and consists of nine Kaplan bulb turbines with a total output of 168 MW. The low-rise design of the powerhouse, which blends seamlessly into the surroundings, is particularly striking. A cycling path runs directly past the power plant, offering both close-up views and photo opportunities. For nature lovers, the fish bypass, opened in 2020, is a highlight, as it allows fish safe passage upstream and supports the ecological sustainability of the power plant. The surroundings along the banks of the Danube are particularly attractive for cyclists who want to enjoy the combination of technology, landscape, and nature.

a good place for a short break

A single-lane road runs over the power plant and is open to pedestrians and cyclists.

Nothing spectacular, but always good for a trip.

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

A little walk around the lake in the morning...😉😍 The "Pichlinger" is simply ideal for a morning walk.
