 ### An overview of your cycling trip along the Danube Cycle Path

The **Danube Cycle Path** is one of the most popular cycle routes in Europe. Discover the Danube between Passau, Linz, the Wachau, Vienna and Budapest – at your own pace and with a convenient luggage transport service.

   ![2 Radfahrer am asphaltierten Radweg am Donauufer](https://www.radurlaub.com/fileadmin/_processed_/f/0/csm_DonaustrandKramesau20_WGDDonauOberoesterreichTourismusGmbHStudioDraussen_48c37e9ef8.jpg "Herrliche Flusslandschaften beim Donaustrand Kramesau") ### Stages & Difficulty Level

The Danube Cycle Path is predominantly flat and is considered one of the most pleasant long-distance cycle routes in Europe:

- mostly tarmac and well-maintained cycle paths
- hardly any significant inclines from Passau to Vienna
- mostly low-traffic routes
- Daily stages usually between 35 and 70 km, depending on the itinerary
- ideal for leisure cyclists, beginners and e-bike riders

On some sections towards Budapest, there may be short hilly stretches or sections on minor roads

   ![3 Radfahrer am Radweg zwischen Weingärten, im Hintergrund die Donau](https://www.radurlaub.com/fileadmin/_processed_/5/7/csm_00000087866_Genussradfahren-in-der-Wachau-Weissenkirchen__c_Oesterreich-Werbung_Martin-Steinthaler-tinefoto-com-_da116d63f1.jpg "Genussradfahren in der Wachau bei Weissenkirchen") ### Luggage transport on the Danube Cycle Path

On our multi-stage tours, your luggage is reliably transported from hotel to hotel. You cycle with just a light day pack and will find your suitcases waiting for you at the next stop on the route. On our hub-and-spoke cycling tours, your luggage stays at your fixed accommodation.

### Best time to visit the Danube Cycle Path

The cycling season along the Danube generally runs from **April to October**:

- **April to June:** mild temperatures and blossoming countryside
- **July and August:** long days and plenty of opportunities for swimming
- **September and October:** grape harvest, pleasant temperatures and an autumnal atmosphere in the Wachau

May, June and September are particularly popular. We recommend booking well in advance for these dates.

**No more printed bike book & handlebar bag**

**Together for a Good Cause:** We want to contribute to sustainability – and our guests can support us in this effort starting from the 2025 season. By opting out of the printed bike book and handlebar bag when booking a cycling, mountain biking, or hiking trip, guests can save valuable resources and receive a €10 discount per person in return. Our guests can decide whether the discount is deducted from the trip price or donated to a good sustainable cause.

We have chosen to donate to the organization World Bicycle Relief. World Bicycle Relief empowers people with bicycles, helping them overcome distances, gain independence, and improve their lives through their own efforts. You can find more information [here](https://worldbicyclerelief.org/).

 **Frequently asked questions about cycling holidays on the Danube Cycle Path**
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

###  [ Which section of the Danube Cycle Path is the most popular? ](#ttg-faq-collapse10591)

The classic **Passau–Vienna cycle route** is the best-known section of the Danube Cycle Path. It takes you via the Schlögener Schlinge, Linz and the Wachau region to Vienna, and is particularly popular with leisure cyclists due to its flat terrain.

###  [ Which Danube Cycle Path trip is right for me? ](#ttg-faq-collapse10592)

The Passau–Linz route is ideal for a short cycling holiday. The classic Passau–Vienna route offers around a week of cycling enjoyment, whilst the Linz–Vienna route focuses on the Wachau region and culture. Vienna–Budapest is recommended for anyone wishing to explore three countries. For those who prefer not to change hotels, star-shaped cycle tours or ‘cycle and cruise’ options are available.

###  [ How challenging is the Danube Cycle Path? ](#ttg-faq-collapse10593)

The section from Passau to Vienna is mostly flat and follows well-maintained paths. Towards Budapest, some sections may be slightly hillier. Overall, the Danube Cycle Path is very well suited to leisure cyclists, beginners and e-bike riders.

###  [ How long are the daily stages? ](#ttg-faq-collapse10594)

Depending on the tour and the section of the route, you’ll usually cycle between **35 and 70 kilometres a day**. You’ll find the exact length of each stage in the relevant tour description.

###  [ Is luggage transport included? ](#ttg-faq-collapse10595)

On our classic multi-day tours along the Danube Cycle Path, daily **luggage transport from hotel to hotel** is included. You’ll only need to carry your day bag.

###  [ What is a centre cycle tour along the Danube? ](#ttg-faq-collapse10597)

On a centre cycling cycling tour, you’ll stay in a hotel for the duration of the trip and set off on different cycle tours from there each day. This means you won’t have to change hotels or pack your bags every day.

###  [ Are the stages cycled individually or in a group? ](#ttg-faq-collapse10598)

Most cycling tours are self-guided. This means you set your own pace, decide when to take breaks and choose which sights to visit. Detailed travel documents, maps and, depending on the tour, digital GPS navigation will help you along the way.

From 2027, OÖ Touristik will be offering individual guided tours – a guide will accompany the group. Further information on this will be available on our website in due course.

###  [ Why book a Danube cycle tour with OÖ Touristik? ](#ttg-faq-collapse10599)

OÖ Touristik is one of the **pioneers of organised cycling tours along the Danube**. Since 1990, guests have benefited from local expertise, carefully planned routes, personalised advice and a reliable luggage transport service.
