Description

The wine, trading, shopping, cultural, school, and university city of Krems enchants with its location: between the Danube and the vineyards of the Kremstal domain stretches the Old Town, which is part of the Wachau UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Steiner Tor, the emblem of Krems from 1480, recalls a turbulent history, as do the many burgher houses from the 16th century when Protestant merchants made Krems rich. Stroll through the Obere and Untere Landstraße, visit the early Gothic Gozzoburg, the Kunsthalle, or the Caricature Museum. A real highlight is the Lower Austria State Gallery opened in 2019, located on the Art Mile Krems.Shortly after Krems, you will discover a new companion: the Wagram region. Intertwined vineyards that transition into rolling fields, shady hollow paths washed out of loess by water over millions of years, characterize the Wagram. The deep loess soils offer ideal conditions for finely spiced, powerful wines. This applies not only to Grüner but also to Roter Veltliner.At the Weritas Vinothek in Kirchberg am Wagram, 50 top winemakers offer over 250 wines. Also located there are the Alchemist Park and the Alchemist Museum in Kirchberg, and not far away the Pleyel Museum and the Pleyel Cultural Center in Ruppersthal. Ignaz Joseph Pleyel, the most famous son of the Wagram, left the romantic wine village to make a name for himself in Paris around 1800 as a composer and piano builder. On five thematically prepared cycle routes, cyclists can explore the Wagram region along discovery tours.Finally, Tulln welcomes you. Just outside the city, you pass the grounds of GARTEN TULLN, Europe's unique ecological garden experience world with over 70 show gardens and many other attractions. In the Egon Schiele Museum, the Egon Schiele Birthplace, and the Egon Schiele Themed Trail, you can experience the world-famous exceptional artist. Tulln's Danube promenade is attractively designed, and within a few minutes you can reach one sight after another, including the Tulln City Museum, which combines the Tulln Roman Museum, the documentation about the imperial women's monastery, and the Virtulleum.

Parcours

Krems an der Donau - Altenwörth - Zwentendorf an der Donau - Kleinschönbichl - Pischelsdorf - Langenschönbichl - Tulln an der DonauRoute Description:Your route begins in Krems an der Donau. The old town of Krems already impresses, as it is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Especially noteworthy is the Steiner Tor, considered the city's emblem. Additionally, there are countless churches, gates, houses, and museums to discover—a true cultural city. Wine lovers also feel at home here since numerous wineries mean that viticulture is not only economically important but also an essential part of this city.Along the Kremstal Wine Road extends the Kremstal wine-growing area on both sides of the Danube around the old wine town of Krems. Viticulture has been practiced here for centuries, and wine is still omnipresent in Krems today. At the eastern gate to the Wachau stretches the Kremstal, one of Austria's oldest wine-growing regions. For many centuries, wine has been cultivated on the fertile primary rock and especially loess soils.You then cross the Krems river and follow this namesake river until it flows into the Danube. Afterwards, you cycle directly along the river on the Danube Cycle Path and enjoy the beautiful landscape panorama that unfolds before you. Here, a similar picture to the Wachau emerges: green hills covered with numerous vineyards. You cycle a long stretch along the Danube until you have to change banks due to the Altenwörth Danube power plant and continue your tour on the south bank.Once there, you cross the Traisen and return to the bank of the Danube. Here you are also in the area of the Wagram Wine Road. The Wagram is a massive terrain step that extends north of the Danube. South of the Danube are the small wine-growing and tavern villages of the Tullnerfeld. The Wagram wine-growing area covers 2,400 ha.Next, you encounter the small community of Zwentendorf an der Donau, which has a special attraction: Austria's first and only nuclear power plant, which was never commissioned. The route continues on the cycle path, which you leave at Kleinschönbichl to move somewhat away from the Danube. You ride on the country road through the two villages of Pischelsdorf and Langenschönbichl and further on L 2148 to the Große Tulln river. Having crossed the river, you return on the other side to the Danube bank.Here, you cover the last meters on the cycle path before arriving at your destination, Tulln an der Donau. The Lower Austrian city offers a wonderful conclusion to your route. Besides many sights, the city is characterized by numerous green and garden spaces. The GARTEN TULLN is also located here. The former Roman cavalry camp Comagenis is known for its diverse art and cultural enjoyment and the babbling fountain.
