TIP FROM THE AUTHOR: To ride the East stage and West stage variants separately, the connecting route between East and West stages starts here in Rekawinkel.  To remain on the East stage:  Pass Gasthof Mayer in Rekawinkel (large intersection) - continue south over the highway bridge.

If you travel by public transport: There's an optimal connection via S-Bahn and regional trains from Vienna! So start this route either at Hütteldorf or Purkersdorf station. Note that there are only limited bicycle transport options on the trains. 

The route is continuously signposted - follow the signs "Wiental Elsbeere Route", "Wiental Elsbeere Route East" or "Wiental Elsbeere Route West".
