Austria - A Land of Water
Nature’s wonders: Lakes, waterfalls, gorges and rivers

Cycling along the Danube Cycle Path, boat tours through the Wachau and nature experiences in the floodplains offer varied options along Austria’s longest river.

Cyclists follow the Mur Cycle Path, while kayakers navigate white-water sections. The floodplain landscapes are home to rare animals and plants.

Nature parks, cycle paths, and river islands shape the character of the Inn river. Popular activities include boat trips, walks along the banks and birdwatching.

The Drau is ideal for cycle tours, boat trips and nature experiences. Sand banks and islands offer natural resting spots, while alluvial forests are home to rare species.

White-water rafting in Gesäuse National Park, paddle tours along the lower reaches and hikes through steep gorges and river valleys.

Embedded in Alpine landscapes, the Salzach river leads to nature reserves and historic towns like Salzburg and Hallein. The Tauern cycle path runs along the river.

Anything is possible in the Traun region - fishing, paddling, hiking, swimming in crystal-clear waters like Lake Traunsee, and climbing along steep banks.

Hikes through the Kamp valley, canoe tours on quiet waters, and wine tastings at its banks make for the perfect symbiosis of nature, activity and enjoyment.
