Your time is limited in Austria but you would still like to see something of the countryside? There are two great day trips that can be easily taken from Vienna.

1)      the Wachau, with a visit to the famous monastery in Melk, and
2)      a trip to one of the largest inland lakes in Europe with a visit to the bird sanctuary

Wachau/Melk/Dürnstein

A trip to the Wachau region will let you ride through one of the most scenic parts of the Danube Bike Trail. This entire region is a UNESCO Heritage Site and for a good reason. There is the beautiful and historic monastery in Melk, the unforgettable scenery as you ride through the vineyards along the Danube and then, quaint Dürnstein with the castle ruins where King Richard the Lionhearted was kept prisoner. It doesn’t get much better than this! A day to remember.

Lake Neusiedl/National Park/bird sanctuary

Want a real Austrian adventure? After a 45 minute train ride you are in Neusiedl am See. From here you ride through the reeds along the lake to the National Park / bird sanctuary. Depending on the time of the year, you can see many of the birds that travel to Europe from Africa. Then to Illmitz to catch the ferry across the lake to Mörbisch. Here you will see just how big it is. Disembarking, you continue to Rust, known for three things; a quaint, beautiful town square, storks nesting on the houses and good food and wine. Pick one of the enticing restaurants. You won’t be sorry! After lunch you ride through the villages along the lake and through vineyards back to Neusiedl for a well earned, relaxing ride back to Vienna. You might want to do it again the next day!

Krems an der Donau is the eastern gateway to the Wachau Valley, one of Europe's loveliest river landscapes. It is also one of the oldest cities in the land. It’s history extends back more than a 1000 years and is evident everywhere you look; in the streets and squares, in the old monasteries and churches, in the town houses and fortifications. The historical centre of Krems is one of the most beautiful in Europe. Over the centuries, builders and architects have created a unique cityscape here that has been lovingly cared for and preserved. These efforts have not gone unnoticed, as UNESCO have added it to the World Heritage List. With all this history, you might think that the city is dominated by the past. In reality, Krems is very open to modern life: Contemporary art and culture play an important role here, adding variety and energy to public areas throughout the city. The spectacular Krems an der Donau is a highly recommended day excursion to take, if you are looking to discover further reaches of Vienna on a weekend break holiday. Krems an der Donau is approximately 60 miles from Vienna, making it very possible to escape the capital for the day. Guides, transfers, tours all can be pre-booked.

The Wachau is a stretch of the Danube Valley between Melk and Krems of high visual landscape quality. It is an outstanding example of a riverine landscape bordered by mountains in which material evidence of its long historical evolution has survived to a remarkable degree. It preserves in an intact and visible form many traces, in terms of architecture, urban design, and agricultural use, principally for the cultivation of vines, of its continuous and organic evolution since prehistoric times. Today the Wachau is the highlight on a trip along the Danube, either by bicycle along the famous Danube biking route, or by boat or car. The landscape of the Wachau region with its cultural and culinary highlights is worth visiting at any time of the year. Come discover Austria. Love this country as much as we do.
