Wienfluss Gravel Cycle Path After Mauerbach Dam

Highlight • Cycleway

Thanks for the highlight :)
This is always my house/evening round. Nice to drive here. How they redid this section, did they dutifully “concrete” everything? and then sprinkled the gravel over it, but it would certainly be nicer without gravel ;)
But in any case it's better to drive now than before!

Wienfluss Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

The Vienna River Cycle Path is a popular and safe cycle path that runs along the Vienna River from Auhof to the Kennedy Bridge. It is 13 kilometers long and offers many sights and recreational opportunities. For example, you can visit the Lainzer Tiergarten, the Moser Villa, Schönbrunn Palace or the Naschmarkt. The cycle path can be used all year round, but you should pay attention to the seasonal opening times and the flood warning system.

Wien River Cycle Path (Wientalradweg)

Highlight • Cycleway

This is a very nice bike path along the Wien River. Many places invite you to rest, sit in the sun or just cool your feet in the water. The route is not recommended for "fast drivers" because there are many "day trippers" on foot and with small children. In any case, it is a chilled out bike tour. We love to drive there.

View of Vienna from Exelberg settlement

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Exelberg is a mountain in Lower Austria, near the city limits of Vienna in the northern Wienerwald. It is 516 m above sea level. A. A state road leads from Exbingberg from Tulbing in the Tulln district to Wiener Höhenstrasse. The mountain is known for the Exelbergrennen that is held here on the road. This competition, organized by the Austrian Automobile Club, [1] was the oldest motor car race in Austria [2] -Hungary [3] and took place on May 21, 1899 [4] [3] for the first time. They were used as car races until 1904 [5]. In 1910 there was another motorcycle race. The road is still a popular motorcycle route today.
The Exelberg transmission tower stands today on the Exelberg. There is also an outdoor rifle and pistol outdoor shooting range owned by the Bundesforste, which is used by the Vienna police, among others. Due to the z. T. strong noise pollution, there have already been various neighboring protests against this system. The Eckbach, a tributary of the Als, and the Halterbach, a tributary of the Vienna, originate on Exelberg.

Swings at Sophienalpe

Highlight • Structure

There are tons of ways to get to the Sophienalpe and, like the alpine area itself, they are all beautiful. The excursion inn Sophienalpe is currently closed (July 2021).
