The Freudenau power plant is a modern run-of-river power plant on the Danube and was built in the 1990s to generate environmentally friendly electricity for Vienna. The facility combines technical infrastructure with well-thought-out architecture and offers exciting insights into energy generation from hydropower along the cycling and walking paths. Particularly impressive is the view of the wide Danube and the lock system as cargo ships slowly move upstream or downstream.

The Danube Cycle Path near Orth an der Donau is one of the most scenic sections of the entire route, as it leads right through the heart of the Donau-Auen National Park. Unlike the built-up sections of large cities, here you cycle through one of Central Europe's last great untouched floodplain landscapes. The path often runs along the flood protection dike, from which you have wide views over the reed belts and oxbow lakes of the Danube.

The Freudenau Lock is a central facility on the Danube that regulates shipping traffic at the Freudenau Danube power plant. It has two lock chambers and is operated 24/7 by viadonau. In 2023, a total of 9,739 ships were locked through here; during peak season, approximately 45 ships pass through the facility daily. For cyclists on the Danube Canal or Danube Cycle Path, the lock offers an interesting stop: From here, the locking process can be observed, and its location on the right bank of the Danube in the 2nd district makes it an easily accessible stopover on a bike tour along the Danube.
