Short gravel bike tour through and around the Lobau

We start our tour at the northern end of the Steinspornbrücke, an ideal starting point for exploring the Lobau.

Route and terrain:

The tour takes us through the beautiful nature of the Lobau, part of the Nationalparks Donau-Auen. The terrain consists of 90% gravel and crushed stone paths, which vary in thickness. It is therefore important that your bike is suitable for such conditions (e.g., gravel or mountain bike). The route is very flat.

Length and pace:

The total distance is approximately 32 km. We will ride at an average speed of about 21-22 km/h (without significant head wind), which is a moderate pace for experienced cyclists. Please only participate if you feel fit enough to do so! If you can't keep up with the rest of the group you have to continue on your own.

Short break halfway:

About halfway through the route, we take a short break of 5-10 minutes have a drink, and enjoy nature.

Distance: 32 km

• Please bring enough water, and a small snack.
• A helmet is highly recommended for safety reasons.
• Before the tour, check that your bike is in good working order (brakes, tires, gears).
