Cycling day trip from Trenčín to Piešťany

This ride takes you from the historic city of Trenčín to the charming spa town of Piešťany, covering just under 46 kilometers through gentle, mostly paved countryside. Trenčín, famous for its mighty hilltop castle and riverside promenade, is the perfect starting point—make sure to look back for that classic castle view as you roll out of town!

The route itself is relaxed, with a friendly overall descent (you’ll actually lose nearly 100 meters in elevation by the time you roll into Piešťany). Most of your ride is on smooth access and quiet roads, so you can focus on the scenery more than dodging traffic. There are plenty of rural vibes, river views, and classic Slovak landscapes along the way.

Once you reach Piešťany, reward yourself: the town is renowned for its healing thermal springs and stylish spa architecture. Perfect for a post-ride wander or even a quick soak! This route is ideal for a leisurely day out—bring a snack, take your time, and enjoy central Slovakia at your own pace.
