Hiking

Directly on the banks of the Danube, the landscape shows its calm and original side. The wide river, the bank vegetation, and the surrounding floodplain forests form a beautiful contrast to the fields and historical sights around Carnuntum. An idyllic place to pause for a moment, let your gaze wander over the water, and enjoy the special atmosphere of the Danube landscape.

Hiking

A particularly beautiful section along the Danube in the Donau-Auen National Park, where the river and the largely untouched floodplain landscape dominate the scenery. Between dense riparian forest and open bank areas, there are always beautiful views of the Danube and the opposite bank. The calm atmosphere and the interplay of water, gravel areas, and lush vegetation make this section an attractive part of the hike between Petronell-Carnuntum and Bad Deutsch-Altenburg.
