Spring rides '16: Vienna to Hainburg via Danube Wetlands National Park, 37km, 28 kph avg.
This trip takes me from Vienna's eastern border to the Village of Hainburg, close to the Border of Slovakia. The track mainly follows the northern Danube dam, crossing the Danube wetlands National Park. There are very few bends, at some stage there is a 9km section without any bends at all. The path is partly sealed, partly unsealed, though some sealed parts are super bumpy and in generally bad condition. Villages along the trail include
- Schönau
- Orth/Donau
- Stopfenreuth
- Bad Deutsch Altenburg
- Hainburg
The trail crosses the river Danube here: it's the only bridge crossing the river east of Vienna.

=======================
--1984 drohte mit dem geplanten Bau eines Kraftwerkes die Rodung und Zerstörung --
Der Nationalpark Donau-Auen ist ein ~ 10 000 ha großer Nationalpark, der sich von Wien bis zur Mündung der March in Niederösterreich, an der Staatsgrenze zur Slowakei erstreckt. Er ist eine der größten weitgehend intakten Aulandschaften Mitteleuropas entlang der Donau. Der Nationalpark ist seit 1996 Schutzgebiet nach der IUCN-Kategorie II. ( Durch den Nationalpark führen der Weitwanderweg 07 und der Donauradweg.)
W e l t n a t u r s c h u t z u n i o n , ist eine internationale Nichtregierungsorganisation. Sie hat es sich zur Aufgabe gemacht, die menschlichen Gesellschaften für den Natur- und Artenschutz zu sensibilisieren und so zu beeinflussen, dass eine nachhaltige und schonende Nutzung der Ressourcen sichergestellt ist. ...Die IUCN !!
Die Donau ist mit einer mittleren Wasserführung von rund 6700 m³/s und einer Gesamtlänge von 2857 Kilometern nach der Wolga der zweitgrößte und zweitlängste Fluss in Europa: sie durchfließt insgesamt zehn Länder:
Das DELTA:Ukraine - Moldawien - Bulgarien - Rumänien; Serbien; Kroatien; Ungarn; Slowakei; Österreich 350km; Deutschland -die QUELLE !
In das Zentrum der Au kann man zufahren: dort ist ein seit vielen Generationen bestehendes Fischrestaurant, das ausschließlich in der Donau seine Fische fängt!
Die Donau hat seit etlichen Jahren wieder ein gutes Wasser...!
Die Donau stellt ebenso eine bedeutende Wasserstraße in Europa dar! Der Schiffsverkehr geht vom schwarzen Meer bis zur Nordsee!
Seit einigen Jahren gibt es mit einem Katamaran eine Schnellverbindung vom Zentrum Wiens in das Zentrum von Bratislava: 1 St. Fahrzeit.
Bei Hainburg an der Grenze zur Slowakei ist die letzte österreichische Brücke über die Donau.
Mit dem Rad ist die Au wunderbar zu befahren! Ein gut befestigter Radwanderweg führt von Wien nach Bratislava!!
(NB.: Das Uferhaus in Orth a.d. Donau ist einen Besuch wert!)

Secrets of the Flooded Forest - Danube National Park - The Secrets of Nature
After beginning in Vienna, the Danube riverbank forests extend to the gates of Bratislava, linking the two capitals like a green ribbon, forming a unique wildlife habitat in the heart of Europe. A few years ago a 36 kilometer section was turned into a national park that now protects the last undeveloped stretch of the Danube river and also the last riparian zone of its size in Central Europe.

Viennas Forests, Jewels of Green - The Secrets of Nature
Vienna's forests make a visual impact on the city's scenery -- being a source of life and sanctuary at the same time: They are omnipresent and an enormous asset, taken for granted by many. Perhaps no other European capital boasts so many acres of forest per inhabitant. There are the well-known Vienna woods in the west and north, the national park of the Danube wetlands to the east, and numerous groves and green corridors right amidst built-up urban space.
Vienna Spring rides '16: Donauinsel-Donaukanal-Prater-Schwechat-Oberlaa 38 km - 28kph avg
This one's for the camera ! I took a decent detour on my way home from work. Heading off to the north-west on the danube island, crossing over to the *mainland* at Nußdorfer Spitz, then following the little danube all the way to the inner city and the third district. This is one of the busiest cycle paths in Vienna, especially between Friedensbrücke and Urania. Crossing the Prater recreation park I follow the danube island to the south east, cross the danube at Freudenau Hydro Plant. The remainder of the ride takes me to the village of Schwechat. Following the Schwechat and Liesing creek trail I end up in front of my home place.

Vienna is not only the capital of Austria, but also one of its nine federal states. St. Stephen's Cathedral, considered the center of the city by its inhabitants, is located 16º 22' 27'' east of Greenwich at 48º 12' 32'' northern latitude, and 171 meters above sea level. The city covers 415 square kilometers and is divided into 23 districts. With woods, grassland, parks and gardens accounting for around half its area, Vienna is the city in Europe with the highest ratio of green space. Urban green such as Stadtpark (with the most frequently photographed motif in the city, the golden Johann Strauss monument) is joined by the woods and grassland of Prater, the extensive Schönbrunn Palace Gardens, sections of the Vienna Woods, vineyards, farmland and the wetlands of the legendary Danube River. During the summer temperatures rarely rise above 30º C, and in winter they hardly ever fall below -5º C.

It is a beautiful nature reserve and part of the National Park Donau-Auen. In 1977 the UNESCO designated this havern as one of the world's most significant wetlands: the Lobau.
World Water Day - Restoring the Danube River and Black Sea
The most international river basin in the world, the Danube River basin, includes territories of 19 countries. Over the past 150 years, agricultural, industrial and municipal pollution severely damaged the ecosystems in the basin and the quality and quantity of water. The impact on the environment was so massive that a 'dead zone' caused by oxygen depletion formed in the western part of the Black Sea. An international plan, with support of UNDP, helped to restore the river basin and revive the Black Sea ecosystem upon which millions depend for their livelihoods.
UNDP identified the major sources of pollution, developed an investment strategy and strengthened institutions that govern the Danube River basin. The UNDP-GEF 49,5 million USD programme helped to catalyze 3,5 billion USD investments into reforms of governing institutions and systems, and into new agricultural and industrial practices. As a result, an effective trans-boundary waters management programme was implemented during the 1990's. The strategic plan and incoming funding enabled the countries along the Danube to monitor and improve water quality and quantity by establishing 75 water quality monitoring stations throughout the basin. With the support of the programme, the governments instituted a damage control system to minimize accidental chemical spills and agreed to reduce nutrient pollution.
Through these reforms and investments, industrial, municipal and agricultural pollution was reduced, virtually eliminating the dead zone in the Black Sea and leading to a significant eco-system recovery.
UNDP works with over 100 countries to modify agriculture, industry, mining, fishing and wastewater management to lessen ecological damage to the water systems. In this way, conflicts can be prevented, security and livelihoods improved, habitats protected and health risks minimized.

euronews science - Danube Delta in danger - say activists
Romanian environmentalists are stepping up their efforts to protect the Danube Delta reserve.
It is the largest European wetland and reed bed, with unique flora and fauna and its lakes, channels, marshes and streams cover up to 5,500 square kilometres.
The main danger for the World Heritage area is use of the land by the nine countries bordering the river; agricultural projects which lead to water pollution, overfishing and poaching .

2015 Danube Water Conference - Christophe Di Marco (GIZ)
The partnership between the Open Regional Fund and the Danube Water Program
Christophe Di Marco - Fund Manager of the GIZ/SDC Open Regional Fund South-East Europe - Modernization of Municipal Services
On May 7 and 8, over 150 key stakeholders from 23 countries gathered in Vienna, Austria to discuss progress made and challenges lying ahead in the state of the water supply and sanitation sector in the Danube region. The conference was organized by the Danube Water Program and the GIZ Open Regional Fund for South-East Europe - Modernization of Municipal Services, which is also supported by the Swiss Development Cooperation.
As the region moves closer towards EU integration, many countries face a double challenge of meeting the high standards of the EU acquis, while providing sustainable and affordable services to their populations.
At present, 22.5 million people in 16 countries of Southeast, Eastern and Central Europe live without access to piped water in their dwellings, and 28 million have no flush toilet in their homes.
The World Bank / IAWD Danube Water Program supports smart policies, strong utilities and sustainable water and wastewater services in the Danube region by partnering with regional, national and local stakeholder, promoting an informed policy dialogue around the sector’s challenges and strengthening the technical and managerial capacity of the sector’s utilities and institutions.

New Life for the Danube
Wetlands are among the world's most productive environments. Their biological riches are important not only for nature, but also for humans, providing a host of different services. The value of the various benefits from Danube floodplains is estimated to be at least €500 per hectare a year.
