The dreamy Danube Cycle Path

From homemade apricot jam, which we spread on our croissants at breakfast, to a delicious chanterelle risotto with salmon fillet. On our leisure cycle tour with luggage transfer, we are served the most delicious Austrian delicacies. When the chef tells you in person that the chanterelles are hand-picked and the apricot jam is made according to grandma's recipe, the specialities of the region taste even better.

I can't say which culinary highlight of this trip impressed me the most: the homemade apricot dumplings in Traismauer, the hearty Kasnockn with fresh salad at the Hofbräuhaus in Krems, or the Wiener Schnitzel at the Schweizerhaus in the Prater?

Every day we are surprised with new variations from Austria's cuisine.

Lower Austria is famous for being a wine growing region. Especially on the stage that leads through the Wachau, we enjoy some very fine wines. At two different wine tastings we get an insight into the history of the Grüner Veltliner and the secrets of wine growing.

After a long cycle in the sun, sit comfortably in the shady guest garden under the vines with a glass of white wine and a homemade Wachauer Laberl to go with it - could it be any nicer?
