Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Linz à Amstetten

Looking for a scenic ride in Upper Austria? The route from Linz to Amstetten is a fantastic tour—just shy of 70k with mostly gentle climbs and smooth descents. You’ll kick off in Linz, a lively city on the Danube, known for its cool blend of contemporary art and rich history (don’t miss the Ars Electronica Center before you go!). Most of your ride rolls on fine asphalt and dedicated cycleways, so you can really settle in and enjoy the journey.

The path hugs the Danube for sections, offering those iconic river views, and meanders through peaceful Austrian countryside peppered with small villages. With over 80% of the route on paved surfaces, you’re in for a comfortable spin. Make sure to pack some snacks for the ride and maybe stop at one of the cozy riverside spots on the way.

You’ll finish in Amstetten, a charming market town that’s a regional transport hub and a great place to refuel or explore a bit before heading back. Perfect for a relaxed day out on the bike, whether you’re a local or just touring through!
