The Danube Cycle Path

Making Time for Family Moments

Elisabeth and her family enjoyed their very first active vacation together cycling from Schärding to Linz. Riding along well-maintained, shaded bike paths, the four of them embraced the peacefulness of nature and the warmth of the sun. A clear highlight for the kids in Passau: the cathedral, the Roman Museum, and the castle.

“Traveling by bike is not only incredibly fun, but it also brings us closer to nature — it slows things down and gives us a real sense of calm and energy.”

An Active Family Adventure

With bikes and a FollowMe tandem in tow, Joscha and his family set off on their journey. Each cycling stage had plenty of exciting highlights for the whole family — with the motor skills park along the route from Schärding to Passau being a particular favorite.

“The next day, we headed toward Aschach. Riding on quiet roads and bike paths, we often had the trail all to ourselves, with only a few cyclists passing us now and then. We pedaled through the narrow Danube valley, often right alongside the river, where we even got to watch a ship or two go by.”

Cycling Fun for All Ages

With its family-friendly infrastructure and scenic landscapes, the Danube Cycle Path provides the perfect backdrop for Guggi and her family. Alongside her parents, grandparents, and two young children, ages two and five, they set out on an active vacation from Schärding to Linz.

“In Linz, there’s something for every member of the family. The kids were thrilled with the Pöstlingberg, which we reached via the charming, historic funicular. Once at the top, not only did we enjoy a stunning view of the city, but there was also a real highlight for the little ones: the Grottenbahn, with its lovingly crafted scenes that light up the children's faces.”

The Alpe-Adria Cycle Path

Unforgettable Family Moments

Bettina and her family cycled from Villach to Grado, experiencing the stunning stages along the way. As avid Italy lovers, it was only natural for the family to want to experience the “Dolce Vita” by bike, and so it was clear from the start that this would be the perfect tour.

“The breathtaking mountain backdrop gives way to a spectacular view of the Cadramazzo waterfall from a bike bridge. The waterfall plunges dramatically in two separate plumes, with the water caught in a basin below. The descent was tempting, but we had to catch our transfer, so we hopped back on our bikes — though we made a promise to return and explore this beautiful valley in more detail.”

Heading South

For Kathrin and her family, summer wouldn’t be complete without a vacation by the sea. That’s why the Alpe-Adria Cycle Path was the perfect choice for their family adventure.

“The most unforgettable moment of our cycling tour on the Alpe-Adria Cycle Path was the moment we thought, ‘We’ve reached the sea!’ Starting in Austria, by bike, it was our family’s first time. Standing by the sea, with Grado in sight, it was clear that the 160 kilometers we’d cycled, under temperatures soaring above 30°C, had been more than rewarding.”

Tauern Cycle Path

Adventure Vacation Included

Together with his wife and two children, Markus explored the stunning landscapes on the Tauern Tour for families, based in one hotel.

“This vacation was perfect for us because the activities, made flexible with the Salzburger Land Card, could be tailored to everyone’s preferences, and cycling was never left out. Since the tour is based in one hotel, we were able to adjust daily activities according to the weather. We’re already looking forward to our next ‘Team Member on Tour’ adventure!”
