Bike rental in Krems an der Donau

Imagine gliding along the majestic Danube with the wind in your hair, while the terraced vineyards of the Wachau Valley stretch as far as the eye can see. In Krems an der Donau, cycling isn't just a means of transport - it's an invitation to experience this UNESCO World Heritage site in Austria to the full.

Renting a bike in Krems an der Donau opens the door to a world where nature and culture intertwine gracefully. When you hop on your bike from the historic center, you'll be spoilt for choice of routes that radiate out in all directions. The Donauradweg, the emblematic cycle path along the Danube, lets you follow the river's course through landscapes that have inspired artists and poets for centuries.

For a more immersive inland experience, the Kremstal Radweg takes you through rolling green hills and famous vineyards where Grüner Veltliner wine reigns supreme. Every pedal stroke brings you closer to small, authentic villages where time seems to stand still.

Challenge seekers will appreciate the Kamptal Radweg with its steeper gradients, rewarded by breathtaking panoramic views over the valley. A well-deserved break in one of the local "Heurigen" (wine taverns) will allow you to regain your strength with a tasting of regional wines and Austrian specialities.

One of the most enchanting routes is through the Wachau, linking Krems to such gems as Dürnstein and its legendary castle, where Richard the Lionheart was imprisoned. Imagine stopping to photograph the apricot trees in bloom in spring or the vines in blazing autumn colors!

Renting a bike in Krems also gives you the freedom to organize your own adventure. Why not combine your trip with a ferry crossing to the other side of the river? Or extend your journey all the way to Vienna, following the 84 kilometers of perfectly laid-out bike path?
