Cycling
Every year thousands of cyclists enjoy the cycling paths along the Danube from Vienna to Passau which take you directly to Weissenkirchen.
Many tourists bring their own bikes or rent a bike locally, to explore the area by bike. The tracks run along both banks of the river Danube, either through the villages or the vineyards and orchards.
If you are hungry or thirsty, take a break in one of the coffee houses, restaurants or Heurigen.
To get across the river use one of the bridges (Mautern or Melk) or take a ferry (Weissenkirchen, Spitz or Duernstein).
Rent a Bike
To rent a bike use Nextbike. Find a Nextbike station in Weissenkirchen next to the train station or bus station. You have to register via e-mail or phone.
