The Marchfeldkanal cycle route takes you from Langenzersdorf along the charming Marchfeld canal and the Rußbach stream to Hof castle. Many info boards and adventure points wait for you in the five themed sections: Marchfeld canal, Napoleon, Asparagus & Co, Nature & Art and Marchfeld castles. Catering and accommodation establishments invite you to take a break, and you can buy regional products from the farmers. You can extend your cycle tour via the connecting paths to the Danube cycle path and the Kamp-Thaya-March cycle path. The Dampfross & Drahtesel cycle path, the "Fabelhafte Radwelten" cycle path and the Iron Curtain Trail provide further combinations, and the Liberty Bridge takes you to Slovakia across the March.
With a little bit of luck you will encounter a very special inhabitant on this section: the Great Bustard is one of the heaviest birds capable of flight in the world and famous for its impressive courtship behaviour. One of the bird’s last areas of refuge is in the Marchfeld region. The route takes you around the protection area so as not to disturb this very endangered species. A board along the way provides information about these unusual animals. The Marchfeld region is not just shaped by its natural world, but also by its artists. In the nearby Europapark Lassee you will find luminous glass pictures by the regional artists Gottfried Laf Wurm and Martin Suritsch.
