Excursión ciclista de un día de Linz a Emmersdorf an der Donau

This scenic ride takes you from the vibrant city of Linz, perched along the Danube, all the way to the charming riverside village of Emmersdorf an der Donau. Linz, Austria’s third-largest city, is known for its lively arts scene, striking modern architecture, and beautiful old town. Start your journey here, coasting out of the city along the mostly paved and asphalted ways—ideal for a smooth, stress-free pedal.

You’ll cover about 123 km, with just enough hills to keep things spicy (expect about 1400 meters of climbing, but hey, there’s more descent on the way!). Much of this route hugs the Danube Cycle Path, so expect plenty of flat, dedicated cycleways with some quiet roads and farm lanes mixed in.

Your destination, Emmersdorf, sits at the gateway to the beautiful Wachau Valley, famous for its vineyards and breathtaking river views. Reward yourself with a coffee and a pastry at a riverside café, and soak up the relaxed small-town vibe—you’ve earned it!
