Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Vienne à Bad Deutsch-Altenburg

This lovely ride takes you from the vibrant heart of Vienna, Austria’s stunning capital, all the way to Bad Deutsch-Altenburg, a spa town with ancient Roman roots nestled along the Danube. The journey is just over 50 km, making it perfect for a relaxed day’s outing—especially as much of the route follows designated cycleways (over 60%) with smooth, paved surfaces almost the entire way.

Leaving Vienna, you’ll roll past iconic city sights before gradually swapping urban buzz for peaceful riverside paths and open countryside. The route is mostly flat with only gentle climbs and more descent than ascent, so it’s beginner-friendly but still offers those satisfying river views.

Your destination, Bad Deutsch-Altenburg, is famous for its thermal springs and the nearby archaeological park Carnuntum, once a bustling Roman city. Treat yourself to a soak or a stroll through history as a perfect ride finale. Don’t forget to pack a swimsuit and maybe a picnic—this route is all about leisure, scenery, and a touch of Roman adventure!
