Spend an afternoon on Donauinsel, the long green strip running along the Danube. Walk, jog or cycle its shaded paths, then cool off with a swim or settle in at a riverside bar.
Full description
Donauinsel stretches for many kilometres between the Danube and the New Danube, forming one of Vienna's largest leisure zones. Paths for running and cycling run along its length, while quieter wooded stretches give way to bathing spots, restaurants and bars during the warmer months.
Locals use it for everything from jogging to swimming and picnics, and reviewers praise its wildlife and clean, well-respected grounds. At roughly two hours, a visit can be as relaxed or as active as you like, and the setting offers an easy way to see the river made famous by Strauss.
