Paseo rápido en bici de Passau a Schärding

Get ready for a scenic (and slightly adventurous) pedal from Passau to Schärding! Starting in Passau—a fascinating city where three rivers (the Danube, Inn, and Ilz) meet and known for its beautiful baroque Old Town—you’ll head south along a 16.5 km route with gentle ups and downs. Expect a mixed bag under your wheels: there’s a good bit of gravel and unpaved fun (about 42%), so a hybrid or gravel bike is a wise choice.

You’ll cruise mostly along quiet roads and tracks, with very little traffic, making for a relaxed ride. The route follows the meandering banks of rivers through picturesque farmland and wooded stretches, and you’ll cross the border into Austria—don't blink, or you might miss it!

The ride ends in Schärding, a charming Austrian town famous for its colorful baroque architecture and lively town square. Take some time to stroll the waterfront or enjoy a coffee before heading back. It’s a great route if you enjoy history, river views, and a taste of both Bavaria and Upper Austria in one outing!
