By Train
Fast services from Vienna run as far as Stockerau; beyond that, service is less frequent. Rail lines parallel the north and south banks of the Danube, and while trains reach all the larger towns and cities in the region, they miss the smaller towns of the Wachau Valley along the Danube's south bank. You can combine rail and boat transportation along this route, taking the train upstream and crisscrossing your way back on the river.
