View of Melk Dam and Power Plant

Highlight • Viewpoint

A look back is sometimes quite good, because the view of the barrage is great.

The Melk power plant is a run-of-river power plant on the Danube in the immediate vicinity of the famous Melk Abbey. In order to affect the landscape as little as possible, the electricity generated is not transported via overhead lines, but via underground cables in the dike on the right bank to the high-voltage grid.

Pöchlarn Danube Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Pedestrians and cyclists are guided to the opposite riverside path via a multi-level 204 m long spiral. The bridge connects Wiener Straße (B1) with Donau Straße (B3) just east of Pöchlarn and thus creates another access point from the southern Waldviertel near Klein-Pöchlarn to the West Autobahn.

Spiral Ramp of the Klein-Pöchlarn Danube Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The spiral reinforced concrete bike ramp on the Kleinpöchlarn side overcomes the height difference between the bridge and the bike path over a distance of almost 200 meters.

I always find the ramp at the bridge cool, even though I've been there quite a few times now. I've never seen anything like it anywhere else!
