START AND FINISH
The medieval town of Weitra is the perfect place for the start and finish. Austria’s oldest brewing town, nestled among gentle hills and green forests in the Upper Waldviertel, provides the perfect backdrop for a race like this. In recent years the town of the Kuenringer has made a name for itself above all in culture and is known as a town for connoisseurs; for the Race Around Niederösterreich, its town square turns into the centre of endurance cycling.
