Cycling day trip from Trnava to Modra

This scenic cycling route takes you from Trnava—one of Slovakia’s oldest towns, known for its charming city walls and Baroque churches—all the way to Modra, the celebrated wine-growing town nestled at the foot of the Little Carpathians.

At just over 36 km, the ride is perfect for a solid half-day adventure, offering a nice mix of quiet roads, cycleways, and tracks (with most surfaces paved, though expect a few stretches missing perfect tarmac). You’ll climb a bit—nothing too wild, just under 200 meters in ascent—passing through peaceful countryside, vineyards, and rolling fields along the way.

Your destination, Modra, is famous not just for wine, but also for pottery and stunning views of the hills. It’s a great spot to relax after your ride, maybe with a glass of the local vintage or a stroll through its pretty center. Enjoy the journey between history, vineyards, and the fresh Carpathian air!
