Marchfeld Canal

Highlight • River

A great connection for cyclists from the Danube through the 21st district to the north of Vienna. Mostly gravel paths lead along the canal, which was originally created for irrigation. A very beautiful natural space in the middle of the city! You can drive over the other sections to Schloss Hof, near the Slovakian border.

You can find a detailed description of the cycle path here: donau.com/de/donau-niederoesterreich.

Marchfeld Canal

Highlight • River

A natural paradise for cyclists, joggers and walkers. There are usually isolated exits to the canal next to bridges. Not too little visited during the week. Almost packed at the weekend. Away from the city of Vienna, the Marchfeld Canal becomes less crowded.

Prater Main Avenue

Highlight • Cycleway

In the middle of the green and yet also in the middle of the city. A hike here is always a pleasure! But the Prater Hauptallee is also one of the most famous training routes in the city for runners and cyclists. It is centrally located, easily accessible by public transport and fully illuminated around the clock. If the four kilometers straight ahead are boring anyway, you can choose one of the many branches. Everything you need for daily fitness in spring, summer, autumn and winter. Thumbs up, great!

December 21, 2024,Gravelrunde - sehr flach.....

Nice, easy round..... after about 9.5 km there was a shortcut where I tested the condition of the ground 😰 - it was furrowed, wet, muddy and I chose the wrong track and slipped behind, but nothing happened 🥴😌....
