For those who feel intense joy at the thought of cycling mile after mile, the Danube Bike Path is the perfect choice. The paths are perfect, the landscape is diverse and magnificent, there are countless country inns and snack-bars and at the end of your journey the pulsating metropolis Vienna awaits you. Indulge yourself and enjoy cycling your 80 kilometres a day. Based loosely on the words on German humorist Loriot: A life without a bike is possible, but pointless.
