A round-trip through Neusiedler See - Seewinkel National Park is an experience in any season. Hundreds of bird species feel right at home in this beautiful habitat. Rare plants and animals, such as hamsters, ground squirrels and steppe polecats, can be found in the meadows.You can comfortably observe the diverse flora and fauna from your bike. For a better view, there are numerous observation towers and viewing platforms along the bike path.
On partly paved and partly gravel paths, you will pass wet meadows and pastures. Some unique habitats include the Lange Lacke near Illmitz and the Darscho Warmsee near Apetlon. Depending on the season, numerous bird species nest here. Rare plants can also be found around the lakes in the Seewinkel region.
