- The colourful market square in Schärding: Red, green, blue - it's colourful on Silberzeile! But where does it come from? From the Middle Ages, where every trade and merchant was assigned a building colour. Nowadays it's not only a great place to stroll, the numerous cafés and restaurants are also worth a visit.
- The natural spectacle Schlögener Schlinge: What the earth is capable of is impressively demonstrated by this piece of nature. Because the Danube could not "flow on" due to the large granite deposits, the river turns a 180-degree loop at this point. Tip: Take some time to hike to the viewpoint.
- Juicy apricots in the Wachau World Heritage Site: As far as the eye can see (well almost!), the little orange fruit that is the centre of so much in the Wachau is thriving. Would you have known? When the last frost in spring threatens to destroy the harvest, the fruit growers sometimes come out with smokers.

- The magnificent old town of Passau: Starting from the "Neuen Mitte", stroll through the pedestrian zone and you will fall under the spell of this city. Whether it's the cathedral, the town hall or the Wittelsbach fountain - with every metre it becomes a little more Mediterranean and historic. After all, Passau is considered the "Bavarian Venice". See for yourself!
- The Schlögener Schlinge natural spectacle: No path is always straight - the Danube had to accept this when it literally hit granite on its way to Schlögen. All the better, because the result is truly unique.
- The Wachau wine towns of Spitz and Dürnstein: This region represents a single highlight in its entirety and is therefore considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Stroll through the alleys in Spitz or venture up to the ruins of Dürnstein Castle. Afterwards, you will have earned a stop at a wine tavern!

- The confluence of the Inn, Ilz and Danube rivers is the reason the beautiful three-river city is known as such. If you want to take a hike to the Veste Oberhaus, you will be rewarded with an impressive view. For you can see exactly how the green Inn and the black Ilz flow into the blue Danube.
- The natural spectacle Schlögener Schlinge: On the ferry ride to the accommodation you can get a great picture of the unique 180-degree turn of the Danube. The granite-rich land literally did not allow the Danube to pass, so it had to turn.
- Juicy apricots in the Wachau: The particularly mild climate of the Wachau offers apricots and grapes the perfect growing conditions. This allows their aroma to unfold in a perfect way - be sure to taste your way through the numerous delicacies!

- The colorful town square of Schärding: Have you heard of the love-crazy Frenchman? In 1809, he had so many love affairs in beautiful Schärding that he neglected to withdraw his troops after the town was occupied. Follow in his footsteps in the castle park before enjoying the atmosphere with coffee and cake on the Silberzeile.
- The Wachau World Heritage Site is simply a region of enjoyment! Try apricot dumplings, Wachauer Laberl and one of the excellent wines that are grown in an area of almost 1,400 m2. Pay attention to the characteristic terraces, which, according to tradition, have their origins in the Middle Ages.
- The outstanding Melk Abbey: Imposing, spiritual, a place with character - there is certainly a lot that can be written about the world-famous baroque abbey. Let yourself be carried away by the atmosphere, admire the priceless art, take a look in the library and relax in the abbey park.
