Hollenstein an der Ybbs

Highlight • Settlement

Hollenstein – an idyllic village in the Ybbs Valley and a popular stop for cyclists on the Ybbs Valley Cycle Path. The route follows the Ybbs River through an impressive river and mountain landscape, offering numerous opportunities for breaks in nature or a refreshing dip in the river. In Hollenstein, the village center, with its restaurants and regional charm, invites you to linger. A fantastic route through a beautiful landscape. A very scenic tour, well worth it.

The "Sheep Cheese Express" was the affectionate nickname of the former Ybbs Valley Railway, which once traversed the Ybbs Valley and was used to transport sheep cheese and other goods. Today, an original carriage, now a "time travel carriage," in the center of Hollenstein an der Ybbs commemorates this history. Inside, visitors will find a small exhibition with original equipment, photos, videos, and eyewitness accounts of the railway and regional life of that era. The modern Ybbs Valley Cycle Path largely follows the former railway line and passes directly by the carriage. For cyclists, this offers an ideal opportunity for a break with cultural insights into the valley's past – surrounded by nature and with direct reference to the history of the route.
