From Passau To Linz
Friday - August 27th 2021
Today was already our last day of our bike trip and we also left the Tauern
Bike Trail since it ends in Passau. Now it was time for us to follow the
Danube Bike Trail to Upper Austria's capital city Linz. After a very sad
breakfast with just coffee and dry rolls, the hotel wasn't able to offer any
vegan options, we left Germany behind. Soon we crossed the German Austrian
border and continued our tour along the Danube. The trail was rather flat and
the landscape quite beautiful and so we came along very quick. In Jochenstein
at the hydro power plant we changed the side of the river and at the famous
Schlögener Schlinge we had to catch a ferry, because due to the steep hills
the bike trail came to an end.

Taking the Ferry |
The scenery of the Schlögener Schlinge was really beautiful and the ferry ride
made ist even more spectacular. Once we made it through the Schlögener
Schlinge, we could continue by bike until we reached the small village of
Untermühl. Since it was already noon we got hungry and stopped at a waterfront
restaurant called
Gasthaus Ernst
for fries and a beer. Afterwards we had to take another ferry, because there
was again no space for a bike trail at the river bank. The ferry took us to
the other side of the Danube and there we cycled until we reached Aschach,
where we met with my parents. We all got ice cream and then they joined us on
our tour for a couple of kilometers. Before Claudia and I continued on our own
again, we all had a beer at
Thalhammers, a beautiful bar and restaurant in Feldkirchen. After we said our goodbyes
to my parents we had about ten kilometers to go until we arrived in Linz.
There we met with Claudia's parents for dinner at
Front Food. A delicious vegan döner later we caught the train back to Salzburg.
