DAY 4 — Sunday, Apr 28, 2024
Today’s 12.6 mi (20.2 km) was totally next to the Danube and was it ever busy with cruise ships whose decks were filled with tourists. Also lots of bicycles on the bike path, so many that some decided to take to the road instead of the bike path—a thrilling walk today!
The second picture won the trifecta for me: (1) one of many medieval castles along the Danube, (2) a cruiseship and (3) a fairy one periodically sees to get to the other side.
The vineyards were more scarce and instead one sees lots of fruit orchards. Technically, the Wachau Valley ends at Melk and so do the vineyards.
