In St. Andrä bei Herzogenburg, the Traisental-Danube cycle route branches off from the Traisental cycle path. The route leads via Hameten and Gutenbrunn along the small Baroque road to Sitzenberg-Reidling. At the entrance to Sitzenberg, you are greeted by Sitzenberg Castle, which is presented on the castle hill. At the end of the chestnut avenue, you can also make a detour along the Tullnerfeld cycle path to the approximately 2 km distant Ahrenberger-Eichberger cellar lane to refresh yourself at a Heuriger. Or you can enjoy a relaxing break with a cooling dip at the picturesque Sitzenberg castle pond.
The carp educational trail (1.6 km) around the pond and the biodiversity trail (3 km) offer you an informative opportunity to learn about the fauna and flora. At the country inn Schmid "Carp host" you can taste regional fish specialties. Passing Maria Ponsee, the cycle route leads you through the floodplain landscape to Altenwörth, where you directly reach the Danube cycle path.
Those who prefer a shorter loop switch in Sitzenberg-Reidling to the Tullnerfeld cycle path (heading west) and take the loop via Traismauer and the Traisental cycle path (about 24 km).
