A once in a lifetime trip: rowing the river Danube.
The ÖRV (Österreichischen Ruder Verbandes) about the trip Vienna-Budapest: “every rower should experience this, it belongs to your education!” Untill Bratislava the river is an unpredictable mountain river, after Bratislava the river has “calmed down”.
We see many fabulous castles from the “Habsburger monarchy” on this trip. We row through the wild and pure river landscape of the most impressive river in Europe.
We row trough the center of Vienna and sleep in Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. We visit the Danubiana Art Museum, we row the old Danube , sleep in authentic hotels and visit the Baselic of Esztergom.
The very best moment of this trip is entering Budapest: the beautiful bridges, impressive castles and the character of the city makes you will never forget! Of course we stay in Budapest to visit the city.
The second part of this trip shows you de tremendous woods of Au. We row trough these old woods and will see many birds. The river is meanwhile a mighty river on her way to the Black Sea.
We visit small city’s like Rackeve and Kalocsa. In the end there is Mohacs, which is known as the batlle of Mohacs, where the Hungarian stopped the Turkish army.
