Author's tip

For family outings, playgrounds along the bike route offer opportunities for breaks. Hikes can be taken to the giant sequoias or to the Göttweiger Predigtstuhl, with a splendid view of the Fladnitztal. The impressive sculpture trail in Paudorf can also be explored by bike.

For culture enthusiasts, a detour to Göttweig Abbey or a visit to the Hellerhof in Paudorf, where there is a museum about the composer Wilhelm Kinzl and his opera "Der Evangelimann", is worthwhile. You can also visit a show garden at the Hellerhof. The Church of St. Blasien in Klein Wien with the surrounding mountain cemetery is also worth a visit.
