Road bike holidays in St. Pölten

Your road bike adventure between the Wachau, Vienna Woods and Alpine foothills begins around St. Pölten, the capital of Lower Austria. Hardly any other region in Austria combines so much scenic diversity in such a short distance: gentle hilly landscapes in the Traisen and Pielach valleys, wide plains along the Danube and challenging climbs up to the Alpine foothills. Plus an excellently developed, low-traffic road network - perfect for anyone who loves variety.

Road biking at the gates of Vienna

13 carefully selected road bike routes between 65 and 170 km start and end in St. Pölten and lead along quiet side roads through Lower Austria's most beautiful landscapes. Whether it's a leisurely ride through the vineyards of the UNESCO World Heritage region of Wachau or a sporty ride over the heights of the Vienna Woods Biosphere Reserve - the routes offer pure cycling pleasure between culture and nature. And after the tour, a detour to the baroque old town of St. Pölten awaits, including a culinary stop and a varied cultural programme.

Ambitious riders make a pilgrimage to the "royal stage" in the pilgrimage town of Mariazell: 169 kilometres and almost 2,000 metres in altitude make it a real road bike classic. No less impressive are the tours into the Ötscher-Tormäuer Nature Park - or over the Jauerling with sweeping views of the Danube. Thanks to the ideal transport connections, you can be in the centre of St. Pölten in no time at all - a paradise for road cyclists.
