By bicycle from Sânmartin to Oradea

This ride starts off in Sânmartin, a peaceful little town best known as the gateway to Baile Felix spa—so you’ll probably catch a whiff of those famous thermal waters as you pedal out. The route to Oradea is super friendly for cyclists, sticking mostly to smooth asphalt and even dedicated cycleways for about two-thirds of the journey. You’ll cruise through gentle countryside with a bit of up and down (just enough to call it a workout), and plenty of quiet roads, so traffic shouldn’t be an issue.

As you approach Oradea, get ready for a real treat. Oradea is one of Romania’s most beautiful cities, packed with Art Nouveau architecture, inviting cafes, and a lively riverfront along the Crișul Repede. It’s the perfect spot to reward yourself with a coffee or ice cream by the main square. All in all, this 16 km ride is the ideal blend of relaxation and adventure—perfect for a sunny afternoon spin!
