Route description: 0 km The starting point of our Strudengau round is the Gießenbachmühle at the entrance to the Stillensteinklamm, at the western end of the municipality of St. Nikola~Donau. Passing the legendary island of Wörth, we turn left under the castle of Werfenstein into the district of Struden. We pass the Imperial Mauthaus, the former mariner's church of Struden, and the municipal office of St. Nikola. Before we return to the federal road, to the left is the Hausstein chapel, where an inscription is carved into the rock, informing about the blasting of Hausstein (Danube whirl) and the regulation of the Struden. In the district of St. Nikola, we pass the old captain's house and finally cross the Dimbach. High on a rock stands the Parish Church of St. Nikola. Passing the elementary school, we continue our ride towards Sarmingstein. Here we see the branch church and the captain's house. Above the captain's house stands the round tower, which once represented the northern corner of the 'Bastei'. After the Ettlinger inn, we continue through the district of Hirschenau, crossing the border of Lower Austria into   Isperdorf   and further through the village of Weins to Ybbs-Persenbeug Hydroelectric Power Plant. At the power plant, we cross the Danube and then continue along the right bank of the Danube towards Willersbach and finally, below the  Ruins of Freyenstein, along the bike path along the Danube towards Hößgang. On this stretch, we enjoy a splendid view of the municipality of St. Nikola and the districts we passed through at the beginning of the round.

In Wiesen there is the possibility to shorten the Strudengau round and directly ferry to Grein (bike ferry). Otherwise, we ride to the Danube bridge in Grein and cross the Danube here towards Grein. At the end of the round, at the Gießenbachmühle snack station there is the possibility for a refreshment.
