In sun and 30 degrees, a real test of character: a dead-straight road with almost continuous 8-10 percent gradient and no switchbacks whatsoever...!

Aschach an der Donau is one of those places that you visit and immediately feel like you are in a postcard. It is one of the oldest and most charming market towns in Upper Austria (Eferding district) and is located directly on the great Danube loop. For centuries, Aschach was an important hub for shipping and trade. This is still reflected in the townscape today. The row of houses directly on the Danube promenade largely dates from the 16th century (Renaissance and Baroque). The facades are magnificently restored and a popular photo motif.

Anyone who hops on a bike here is stepping into a piece of living brewing history: the Schlägl Abbey Brewery has been brewing distinctive beers since 1580. In the brewery's tavern, Mühlviertel delicacies are served, perfectly complementing a freshly tapped Schlägl beer. Those wishing to stay longer can spend the night in the monastery's guesthouse – quiet walls, robust beer, regional cuisine: a harmonious combination that makes cycling tours an unforgettable experience. www.stift-schlaegl.at
