    It's undeniably one of the most fun ways to explore the sunny region of Central Burgenland. On the tracks of a disused railway line between Oberpullendorf and Horitschon/Neckenmarkt, the railbikes travel a roughly 23 km route through idyllic little villages, meadows, forests, and fields. Tours alternate between the Oberpullendorf train station (on odd-numbered days) and the Horitschon/Neckenmarkt train station (on even-numbered days).

    The actual travel time is about 2.5 hours, but you should plan for 3-4 hours to enjoy a well-deserved break at the refreshment stations along the route. The homemade waffles and pastries at the "Bahnhofsbäckerei" (station bakery) are legendary, and the stylish "Mittelstation" (middle station) is a must-see! There are also rest stops along the route with playgrounds and picnic areas where you can enjoy time in nature and unwind. Opening and closing the barriers at the road junctions and operating the automatic light and barrier system when crossing the main road is especially fun. Whether you're planning a trip with friends, colleagues, or the whole family, a railbike tour is adventure and fun all the way!

    Return to the starting point is via the pre-booked shuttle bus.

    The season runs from the beginning of April to the beginning of November, depending on the weather.
