Cycling day trip from Vienna to Korneuburg

This leisurely 20.5 km bike route takes you from Vienna’s vibrant city center, right along the sprawling Danube and into the charming town of Korneuburg. You’ll cruise mostly on smooth, dedicated cycleways (about 67% of the trip), so it’s perfect for a relaxed ride—no need to stress about traffic. Most of the surface is high-quality asphalt, too.

Set off from Vienna, a city bursting with history, art, and that ever-inviting coffeehouse culture. As you leave the urban buzz behind, the path treats you to river views and a taste of the Austrian countryside before gently rolling into Korneuburg. This little gem of a town is known for its historic old square and beautiful baroque Town Hall—a fantastic reward for your ride.

With only a gentle 86 meters of ascent, this route is quite beginner-friendly, making it great for a weekend outing. Pack a snack or stop for something sweet in Korneuburg—you’ve earned it!
