Neumarkt cycle path - R18

This 24.6 km long cycle path leads through the Zirbitzkogel-Grebenzen Nature Park.

This is a slightly longer bike tour. In this regard, a certain level of fitness and endurance is required. However, all efforts are rewarded by the sight of wonderful landscape scenery and the medieval castle ruins of Dürnstein.
