The renaturation of the Danube near Hainburg, particularly in the Johler Arm area, is one of the most important ecological projects in the Austrian Danube region. The goal was to return the heavily regulated Danube to its natural state and to restore valuable floodplain forest and river habitats. The Johler Arm, a former branch of the Danube near Hainburg, was reconnected to the main stream as part of the project. This reconnection ensures regular water flow through the branch, restoring dynamic river processes such as flooding, sediment relocation, and natural bank formation. As a result, many rare animal and plant species – including fish, amphibians, and waterfowl – benefit from new habitats. The project also improves ecological continuity for migratory aquatic organisms. A landscape-enhanced floodplain landscape was created along the Danube, where the natural diversity of the Danube can once again be seen and experienced – a successful example of near-natural watercourse development in the Danube Floodplains National Park.

A beautiful park for hiking, walking, jogging with benches and old trees

Up a few steps and then you can take a look at the 2 locked gates!

You can still admire these up close.

North of Jois is the Ochsenbrunnen. A small pond in the middle of a natural landscape that makes every romantic heart beat faster. It's worth a visit, especially on hot days: Located at the edge of the forest, old trees provide enough shade, fresh spring water gushes out of the fountain and offers refreshment, and benches with tables invite you to rest. Water lilies adorn the pond and colorful dragonflies regularly pay a visit. And the view of Jois and Lake Neusiedl is tremendous.

A river and forest setting that pleases. In Italy similar settings are found only in high mountain landscapes. Handsome.

With a bit of luck you can see kingfishers and beavers!

After a few steps you will reach the Bear Cave, a natural monument.
