The Wiener Neustadt Canal, opened in 1803, was originally built as an artificial waterway for transporting wood, bricks, and coal towards Vienna. With the advent of the railway, historical shipping rapidly lost importance in the 19th century, leading to the abandonment of large parts of the once continuous network. Today, the preserved sections primarily serve as valuable industrial monuments, popular cycling paths, and cherished local recreation areas in the Lower Austrian region.

The boathouse in Wiener Neustadt is located directly on the banks of the historic Wiener Neustadt Canal and combines a popular boat rental with a welcoming excursion restaurant. After severe damage from a tree falling in the summer of 2025, the business was extensively renovated and expanded by the operating family and successfully reopened at the beginning of 2026. Today, the restaurant invites guests to linger with its expanded, pub-style food offering and its direct recreational area on the water.

Since it hasn't rained, the gravel part can be ridden quite well even with a recumbent trike, so I think it's certainly no obstacle with a bike either, tried both, a little gravel is ok, good bike
