The bike route starts in Mistelbach at the parking lot of the MAMUZ Museum Mistelbach. You can reach Mistelbach by train or bus. A 15-minute walk across the main square, past City Hall, will then take you to the starting point.

You should also plan a visit to the alpaca farm. The route continues to Hörersdorf, where you’ll find a drinking fountain at the Weinviertel rest stop in the wine cellar lane.

Continue along the “Sylvaner” Wine Cycle Trail to the Frättingsdorf train station. There, turn left toward Frättingsdorf. The Rivanerstüberl, a traditional wine tavern on the wine cellar lane, is a great spot for a short break. The Mistelquelle memorial stone, which commemorates the source of the Mistel River, is a must-see attraction in Frättingsdorf. There you’ll also find the artwork “Tausammler.”
