Cycling day trip from Fischamend to Vienna

This scenic cycling route starts in Fischamend, a charming town just southeast of Vienna and well-known for its proximity to the Nationalpark Donau-Auen—a haven for wildlife and river landscapes. The ride to Vienna stretches a comfortable 30.5 km, almost entirely on smooth, paved surfaces, making it a relaxed journey whether you're commuting or out for a leisurely day in the saddle.

Cyclists will be happy to cruise mostly along dedicated cycleways (over 60%), with quiet roads making up much of the remainder, so you can enjoy the ride without much traffic stress. You’ll gradually climb about 140 meters as you move north, but nothing too intense—just enough to keep things interesting. On the way, you’ll get glimpses of the beautiful Lower Austrian countryside before rolling into the vibrant streets of Vienna.

Your destination is Vienna, Austria’s elegant capital, famed for its imperial palaces, coffee houses, and dynamic arts scene. It’s a ride that smoothly transitions you from riverside tranquility to urban energy—a perfect day trip or gentle introduction to long-distance cycling in Austria!
