July 12, 2025,🇦🇹 Thayarunde -Radweg Süd 12.07.2025

Starting from Waidhofen, we explored the Thayarunde Cycle Route South today: Windigsteig - Göpfritz - Groß Siegharts - Hollenbach.
Varied natural stretches with abundant crops: flax, potatoes, poppies, and pumpkins in vast fields.
Tomorrow we're planning to explore the Thaya Cycle Route North to Slavonice in the Czech Republic.
