Quick ride by bicycle from Üröm to Óbuda-Békásmegyer

This ride takes you from the village of Üröm, perched on the hills just north of Budapest, down towards the lively district of Óbuda-Békásmegyer. Expect roughly 11 km on mostly paved roads—lots of quiet backroads, a good stretch of cycle paths, and barely any busy traffic.

The route starts out a bit higher up (Üröm sits at the edge of the Buda Hills), so you’ll enjoy more descent (over 110 m) than climbing, making it a breezy cruise south. Üröm is a peaceful spot known for its wine cellars and leafy surroundings, while Óbuda-Békásmegyer marks one of the oldest parts of Budapest, famous for its Roman ruins and lively riverfront.

Most of your ride cruises along smooth asphalt, though there’s the occasional stretch of concrete or cobblestone to keep things interesting. Keep your eyes open for awesome city views as you drop down toward Óbuda—perfect for a laid-back pedal, whether you’re heading for coffee, sightseeing, or just soaking in the local vibe.
