The Danube-Auen National Park is one of the last large, intact floodplain landscapes in Central Europe. It stretches along the Danube between Vienna and Bratislava and covers an area of around 9,600 hectares. The national park protects this unique river landscape, which is characterized by a dynamic interplay of floods, gravel banks, old watercourses and floodplain forests. The national park was created after the successful protests against the construction of a hydroelectric power plant in Hainburg in the 1980s. The protection of the floodplains became a milestone in the Austrian environmental movement. The Danube flows largely unregulated in this section, which means that natural flooding and changes in the course of the river remain possible. This dynamic creates diverse habitats.

Nice rest area directly on the hiking trail.

Great cycle paths and beautiful nature

The Danube-Auen National Park is a 9,600 hectare national park that stretches from Vienna to the mouth of the March in Lower Austria on the border with Slovakia. It is one of the largest, largely intact floodplain landscapes in Central Europe along the Danube. The area is 38 kilometers long and measures barely four kilometers at its widest point.

The Donau-Auen National Park stretches from Vienna to the mouth of the March at the Slovakian border near Bratislava. With a total length of the protected floodplain area of 38 kilometers, the national park is barely 4 kilometers at its widest point, because floodplains are only found in the immediate vicinity of the river. In the north lies the wide plain of the Marchfeld and the protective dam, built in the 19th century, runs through the national park area. In the south, the border is formed by the edge of the Vienna Basin.

With the founding of the Donau-Auen National Park in 1996, this jewel was placed under international protection. Since then, nature has been able to develop here free of economic constraints and be experienced by guests to the area.

The Donau-Auen National Park in Austria preserves the last large floodplain landscape in Central Europe on an area of more than 9,600 hectares. The Danube, which is still free-flowing here, is the lifeline of the national park for about 36 km. Their dynamic interplay with level fluctuations of up to 7 m redesigns the floodplains again and again. In this way, the Danube River creates habitats for a large number of animals and plants.
