Where To Visit In Austria

Tyrol Cycling Tours

Tyrol region is a dream destination for the more adventurous cyclists, especially those keen to experience the  scenery of the Austrian Alps. The region offers a diverse range of cycling routes, from leisurely valley rides to challenging alpine climbs. Well-maintained trails like the Inn Cycle Path (Innradweg) follow the River Inn through stunning landscapes, picturesque villages, and cultural landmarks. In the summer months, high-altitude paths provide breathtaking views and crisp mountain air, making Tyrol a top choice for those seeking a physically rewarding and visually spectacular cycling holiday.

Bratislava Castle

Vorarlberg Cycling Tours

Located in Austria’s westernmost corner, Vorarlberg offers a unique cycling experience thanks to its blend of Alpine landscapes, innovative architecture, and lakeside charm. One of the regions highlights is cycling around Lake Constance (Bodensee), where flat, scenic trails pass through medieval towns, vineyards, and nature reserves. The region also connects to international cycling paths that lead into Germany, Switzerland, and Liechtenstein. With a mix of gentle terrain and more demanding mountain routes, Vorarlberg caters to all cycling levels, and its rich cultural calendar adds another layer of interest for travellers on two wheels.

Vienna Cycling Tours

Vienna is best known for its imperial architecture and rich cultural heritage, however it also offers a surprisingly cyclist-friendly environment that makes it perfect for exploring by bike. Cyclists can take in stunning sights such as Schönbrunn Palace, the Prater with its iconic Ferris wheel, and numerous coffeehouses that make perfect rest stops. Beyond the city centre, the Danube Cycle Path (Donauradweg), one of Europe’s most popular long-distance routes, connects Vienna to neighbouring wine regions and quiet riverside villages, offering a seamless blend of urban and rural cycling.

Burgenland Cycling Tours

With its gentle, rolling hills and extensive network of dedicated cycling trails, Burgenland is perhaps the most relaxed and sun-soaked of Austria’s cycling regions. The Neusiedler See Cycle Path, a UNESCO-listed route encircling the shallow steppe lake, is ideal for families and leisure cyclists. With vineyards, historic castles, and small villages where riders can stop for wine tastings and local cuisine, it makes it the perfect region for exploring by bike.
