From Mühldorf, we ride via Trandorf to the Nonnersdorfer Kreuz, where we marvel at the impressive panorama of the Alpine foothills on the descent to Nonnersdorf. From the pilgrimage site of Maria Laach, we climb the Hochjauerling, which gives us a magnificent view: We marvel at the vineyard terraces of the Wachau with the Danube river and can even make out the silhouette of the city of Vienna on a clear day! From there, we cycle along the Heuweg, where we can repeatedly catch delightful views of the Danube valley, into the Spitzer Graben with its steep vineyard terraces and back to Mühldorf.
