Kraftquell cycling route

<p>With about 65 kilometers in total length, the Kraftquell cycling route is a versatile route through the heart of the Waldviertel. Because of the typical hilly landscape, good basic fitness is recommended.</p><p>The start and end point of the circular route is Zwettl. From the historic district capital, the route leads through varied landscapes over gentle climbs to the source of the Thaya at Schweiggers – the origin of the Thaya. It continues through idyllic villages, past powerful natural spots and quiet forests. Impressive rock formations await you near Großschönau, before the route leads towards Groß Gerungs, where the Kraftarena invites you to take a final break. After that, it goes back through the typical hilly landscapes of the Waldviertel to Zwettl, where cultural highlights and cozy restaurants invite you to stop for a break.</p>

<p>We recommend: helmet, appropriate clothing and footwear, rain and sun protection, first aid kit (blister plasters), sufficient provisions (snack, muesli bars, fruit, water).</p>

<p>Make sure when choosing the route that it matches your fitness level. Check whether the gastronomy businesses you want to visit on the way are open. Pack your mobile phone and maps in your backpack.</p>
