The Viehofner Lakes in St. Pölten consist of the Großer Viehofner See and the Kleiner Viehofner See, and together form a popular local recreation area. The lakes are connected by a canal and offer a variety of opportunities for recreational activities such as swimming, boating, walking, and cycling. Well-developed cycling and hiking trails run along the shores, offering magnificent views of the water and the surrounding nature. While the Großer Viehofner See invites you to linger with its lawns, swimming areas, and restaurants, the Kleiner Viehofner See, with its reed beds and breeding grounds, is a nature reserve and provides a habitat for numerous bird species. The area thus combines recreation, sports, and nature experiences in the immediate vicinity of the city.

Cycling along the banks of the Traisen River near Herzogenburg offers a particularly charming route. The path follows the river's course, offering frequent unobstructed views of the shimmering water, the riverside meadows, and the gentle rows of trees along the river. The route is pleasant to ride, picturesque, and close to nature, making cycling along it an experience in itself. Passing tranquil stretches of river and lively riverside areas, the tour offers an atmospheric interplay of nature, water, and landscape – ideal for anyone who wants to actively explore the riverbank by bike.
