A leisurely ride through three provinces along the banks of the river enns
Ennsradweg Cycle route
Would you like to combine cycling pleasure with amazing natural beauty and places steeped in culture and history? The cycle route along the banks of the River Enns delivers all this and more. Take in stunning alpine massifs, picturesque valleys, babbling mountain brooks, quaint villages and historical towns along the 240 km of the Ennsradweg cycle route. The route takes you all the way downstream from the mountains to the River Danube. There are plenty of opportunities to stop and stare: See the mighty Grimming, or Stift Admont monastery with the largest library of its kind in the world, or the power of the River Enns in the Gesäuse national park - and the visitor centre in Reichraming, or visit Enns itself, the oldest town in Austria - and lots more too.
