Via the Traisental cycle route, past the St. Pölten lakes and Herzogenburg to Traismauer and from there back by train. Wonderful bathing opportunities along the route.
A few meters through the city and you are already on the Traisental cycle route, which always leads north directly next to the water out of the city. Past the soccer stadium, the Ratzersdorfer and Viehhofner lakes are the first worthwhile destinations after just a few kilometers, with playgrounds, mini golf, swimming opportunities and, of course, an ice cream in the lake can.
The route continues along the Traisental cycle route via Herzogenburg, a small town with a wonderful abbey and an almost British flair and garden. Another special feature are the many gravel banks along the route - time flies by until you reach Traismauer, from where you can take the train back to St. Pölten in comfort.
We recommend checking the timetables via the ÖBB route planner Scotty before every journey by public transport!
