Drive along a disused railway line with Sonnenland Draisinentour!
Sopron and its surroundings offer plenty of programs for the adventure-seekers who come here, and the Hotel Palatinus provides you with discounted tickets!
Not far from our city, on the other side of the Austrian border, you can enjoy an unusual experience. Drive along a disused railway line, through pristine forests and picturesque fields! The 23 km long tour can be completed at your own pace on bike racks for 4-12 people. Along the way, we have the opportunity to rest at 3 catering units, we pass by a bakery, a restaurant and a winery, and we can enrich the trip with cultural programs, because one of the stops is next to the Lackenbach Castle.
