Route & Itinerary
The scenic cycle path along the Danube is a timeless classic, drawing thousands of cyclists from around the world each year. As one of Europe’s oldest long-distance cycling routes, it remains among the continent’s most popular river paths. Covering roughly 2,850 kilometers (about 1,770 miles), it follows the Danube from its source in Donaueschingen all the way to its mouth at the Black Sea—mostly flat and ideally suited for cycling.
On Our Classic Route from Passau to Vienna, you’ll cycle over 330 kilometers (about 205 miles) through some of the most beautiful and vibrant stretches along the Danube. At times, the river guides you through gentle wine country, at others through historic Austrian cities such as Linz and Krems. Along the way, numerous castles, palaces, and charming wine regions invite you to pause and enjoy. Thanks to the mostly flat route, this stage is especially well suited for families, leisure cyclists, and entry-level cyclists.
