Quick ride by bicycle from Linz to Steyregg

Heading out from Linz, the vibrant capital of Upper Austria set along the Danube, this easy-going ride leads you east to the quieter town of Steyregg. You’ll cover a little over 11 km, mostly on smooth, paved cycleways, making it perfect for a relaxed outing or a commuter’s run.

Beginning among Linz’s blend of baroque buildings and riverside parks, you’ll quickly find yourself cruising on dedicated bike paths that keep traffic and stress at bay. The route stays nearly flat with just a gentle rise and a bit more descending as you make your way toward Steyregg—so it’s great for all fitness levels.

After about an hour or so, you’ll roll into Steyregg, a small town known for its medieval castle perched above the village and scenic spots along the floodplains of the Danube. With minimal elevation change and top-notch cycling infrastructure, this is a fun ride whether you’re a local or just passing through. Enjoy the riverside views and the easygoing Austrian cycling spirit!
