Overnight stays in the region
Wachau-Nibelungengau-Krems Valley ("Kremstal" in German)

Living and feeling good

The Danube accompanies Lower Austria for around 260 kilometres on its journey – passing landscapes that are as diverse as the moods you carry with you on a journey. Gentle vineyards, culturally rich cities, wide plains and quiet meadows alternate and form a river landscape that constantly offers new impressions. Each region tells its own story, shaped by nature, tradition and joie de vivre.

They all have one thing in common: a remarkable variety of hosts who make every stay something special. Whether stylish, familiar, close to nature or extraordinary – along the Danube, there is the right place to stay for every travel mood. Here, hospitality is palpable, and every stop invites you to experience and enjoy the region in all its facets.
