Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Vienne à Podersdorf am See

This scenic cycling route lets you roll from Vienna’s grand cityscape down to the breezy lakeside of Podersdorf am See. You’ll cover just under 91 kilometers, mostly on flat and gently descending roads, so it’s great for a solid day ride. The majority of your route is on smooth asphalt, with a few stretches of quiet country roads and cycleways—perfect for relaxing and soaking in the views of Lower Austria’s vineyards and farmland.

You start amidst Vienna’s imperial charm, maybe grabbing a coffee before heading south. As you pedal out of the city, the urban vibes fade and you’ll soon find yourself in Burgenland’s laid-back landscape. Keep an eye out for stork nests and wind-turbines as you near Lake Neusiedl—the region is a paradise for birdwatchers and outdoor lovers.

Podersdorf am See is famous for its long lakeside beach and iconic lighthouse. It’s a mecca for windsurfing and has a laid-back, holiday feel—ideal for a well-earned swim or local wine at sunset. Don’t forget your sunscreen and enjoy the ride!
