Hiking routes

Our extensive network of walking trails is one great way to explore the Donau-Auen National Park on your own. Trailheads for marked routes of varying lengths may be found at the entrances to the national park.

The national park's well-developed navigational system can be used for orientation and also offers other valuable information to our visitors.

Here you may find detailed descriptions of each walking trail, including reference to special features unique to each location as well as a downloadable sectional map of the trail.

We would kindly request that all visitors to the national park heed our code of conduct in respect to nature conservation and be mindful of other visitors to the national park.

Caution is advised for individual visitors during rapidly rising water levels of the Danube as well as during high water. Avoid areas where you can be trapped by high water!
