An inn between Hohenau an der March and Dürnkrut – a stop by the river
Hohenau an der March and Dürnkrut are about fifteen kilometres apart along the river March. Gasthaus Jana is a stop for cyclists, border commuters and lunch guests from the northern part of the March valley.

A stop for cyclists on the March cycle route
The cycle route along the river March passes through Dürnkrut. Gasthaus Jana is right on the main street and bikes can be parked in front of the house. The kitchen cooks on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. — if you are riding on a closing day, plan around it. Simple guest rooms are available for longer tours.
For guests from the border area
Hohenau is the nearest crossing towards Slovakia and lies close to the Czech border. The clientele reflects that: German and Czech are spoken in the house and part of the menu is Bohemian — wedding-style beef roast, raznici, sausage in vinegar and oil.
What is there to see along the March?
The floodplain meadows between Hohenau and Dürnkrut are both a nature area and cycling country. A few kilometres south lies Jedenspeigen, site of the 1278 Battle on the Marchfeld. Distances to every municipality nearby are listed on the Directions and surroundings page.
