The countryside around Illmitz is best explored by bicycle. However, horseback riding, horse and carriage and walking are also great ways to discover nature here. The lakeside recreation area (Strandbad) with its large lawn and playground guarantees fun in the sun and in the water. On windy days, sailors and windsurfers can be seen in action off the shore at Illmitz - providing a perfect photo opportunity.
Cycle around lakes, donkeys and untouched nature
Illmitz is a popular holiday location for cyclists and hikers. The well-signposted regional cycle and walking path network covers over 500 kilometers. Cyclists appreciate the bicycle service shops, the many opportunities to hire bicyles and the great connections offered by the hourly cycle ferry service.

Walking and running in the National Park
How about a walk, a hike or a jog in the National Park? In spring, geese busy themselves around the lakes and the twitter of numerous birds competes for your ear. White donkeys graze in the gentle steppe landscape and steppe cattle impress with their mighty horns. Please note the restriction signs protecting the habitat of these animals and be considerate to other visitors.
On horseback
A horseback ride is definitely a great experience. The expanse of the Pannonian plain and a feeling of endless freedom can be best experienced during a guided outride or longer tour. The carriage rides through the protection zone of the National Park are a more comfortable option.
