The story of  in Neustift im Mühlkreis began decades ago, when Markus Luger's great-grandfather laid the foundation stone with a small inn. Today, it has become a culinary jewel that celebrates the Danube, its fish and the Mühlviertel region in a masterful way. Here, where time seems to pass more slowly, the Luger family welcomes their guests with a warmth that makes you feel that you are not just in a restaurant, but in the heart of a passion that has been lived for four generations.

The Luger family business: that's Markus, his aunts, uncles and his daughter, who together make the business what it is - a place filled with a deep connection to nature and a history that began with a passion for fishing and has been passed down through generations. Markus and his family specialise in one type of fish in particular - Danube fish, which they catch fresh in front of the house. Preparing the fish at Gasthaus Luger requires a special skill: cupping - an almost forgotten technique of fish preparation in which fine, parallel incisions are made in the skin of the fish, allowing spices, marinades or other flavours to penetrate deep into the fish flesh. The range of fish that can be tasted at the restaurant extends from white fish such as aitel, barbel and bream to noble fish such as trout, char, pikeperch and carp. But it's not just fish lovers who get their money's worth at Gasthaus Luger, as the restaurant offers a variety of different dishes ranging from traditional Austrian cuisine - such as the Mühlviertler Bierschnitzel filled with bacon, sheep's cheese and herbs - to vegetarian options and homemade pastries. The cuisine at Gasthaus Luger is characterised by the use of ingredients from the restaurant's own farm and many local producers.
For Markus, the connection to the region is not just a promise, but a way of life that has been built up and strengthened through years of relationships with local farmers and producers. These friendships are reflected in the ingredients, which find their way into the kitchen fresh and of the highest quality every day. A mixture of deep tranquillity and warm hospitality prevails at the inn.
 
Guests travelling along the Donau cycle path, on the Penzenstein-Runde, the Donaulimes Welterbe-Runde Passau-Schlögen-Passau can look forward not only to fresh dishes, but also to tastings and seasonally changing menus. Here, far away from everyday life, guests will find a place to stop and savour - be it with a freshly caught fish dish or a glass of wine with a view of the passing Danube.

The following tour also leads past the Gasthof Luger fish restaurant:

From Au on the left bank of the Danube, the Hotel Donauschlinge cycle ferry takes you to the right bank of the Danube, from where you can continue your journey through the Danube loop.
The Riverresort Donauschlinge, your first stage destination on the Danube cycle path Passau - Vienna, is located directly at the landing stage.

The rest areas consist of an exposed concrete column, reminiscent of a Roman milestone, bearing a Roman head created by artist Miguel Horn and containing information about the local community, the Danube cycle path and the Romans, as well as a 5 metre long rest bench made of concrete and stone and a paved floor made of Danube pebbles. The architecture is based on design elements from Roman times.

The design for the Roman rest areas was the result of a competition organised jointly with the University of Art and Design Linz and won by student Lukas Beltrame. An important partner in the construction of the squares is the construction academy in Steyregg, which produced all the built-in parts for the squares with its apprentices.

Im Sommer steht eine Sonnenterrasse mit Schirmen zur Verfügung.

In this family-run business flat-bottom wooden boats (Zille) are built in different variations depending on the customer requirements. Traditional boats are offered in many variations just the same as ferries or boats for fishing. In addition, wooden sailing boats, built according to the idea of the sailing icon Hubert Raudaschl, are offered.

Besides the standard boat shapes we are very flexible in terms of the shape of the boat, the interior and the body. You can let us know your expectations in a personal talk and we will try to fulfil them.

Since 1820 the family Königsdorfer builds the for the Danube region typical flat-bottom wooden boats. The head of the house, Rudolf Königsdorfer, is one of the last boat builder on the Danube and ensures that every year about 80 handmade flat-bottom wooden boats leave his house.
And they still do much of old boat building tradition. 200 years of traditional knowledge.
