Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Schärding à Feldkirchen an der Donau

Get ready for a picturesque ride from Schärding to Feldkirchen an der Donau! Your journey starts in the charming baroque town of Schärding, perched right on the banks of the Inn River and known for its colorful facades and laid-back vibe. You’ll cover just over 87 km, so it’s a decent day’s ride—plenty of chances to stretch the legs.

The route is mostly friendly for cycling: about 85% is paved and over half follows quiet roads, with some lovely sections on designated cycleways. Expect a little adventure—with a few patches of gravel and mild climbs (roughly 1700 meters of ascent overall)—but enjoy rolling through the rolling Upper Austrian countryside, scenic farmland, and small villages.

You’ll finish up in Feldkirchen an der Donau, which sits right by the Danube River and is famous for its beautiful lakes (the “Feldkirchner Badeseen”), perfect for a post-ride dip. All in all, this is a relaxed ride packed with classic Austrian scenery, a sprinkle of history, and plenty of peace along the way.
