The "Venus place" Willendorf is the starting point of our route and leads us over Groisbach on little busy roads to Jauerling. From Zeißing we ride along a romantic forest path to Gießhübl, where we can admire an old watchtower. From there we return via forest roads back to Willendorf, where we can still visit the find site of the "Venus of Willendorf" and the Venusium museum.
