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.
The Marchfeld region is Austria’s vegetable garden. On around 7.000 hectares more than 700 producers harvest their vegetables, fruit and field crops. The Marchfeld region is particularly well known for its top class asparagus, but also for processing frozen vegetables. Show your knowledge about vegetables on the quiz board along the cycle path. Have you acquired a taste for it yet? Another info board provides an overview of all farm shops and farmers markets in the region and invites you to pay them a visit. From A for artichoke to Z for zucchini you can buy all your regional and seasonal delicacies from the farmers throughout the year!
