Austria: Along the Danube
Once Sissy steamed down the Danube, on the way to becoming queen of Austria. From her birthplace Bavaria all the way to Vienna people along the river cheered. Now it's tourists who go downstream. Most of them not by boat, not even by car. Along the Danube the bicycle is favourite.

After cycling, walking is the most popular activity along the Danube. For instance at the Donau-Höhen-Rundwanderweg (Danube Hills Path) between Passau and Linz. Favourite spot for a break is the viewpoint above the rivers's largest loop near Schlögen, nicely called Schlögener Schlinge. Photo Paul Smit.
