Cycling day trip from Spišská Nová Ves to Levoča

This ride takes you from the lively town of Spišská Nová Ves to the picturesque, historic city of Levoča—both gems nestled in Slovakia’s Spiš region. Kick things off in Spišská Nová Ves, known for its charming main square and the tallest church tower in Slovakia. From there, you’ll head north on a mixed terrain route—expect a good blend of paved, concrete, and gravel surfaces, including a generous chunk of unpaved and track sections.

It’s a relatively hilly ride with about 530 meters of climbing, so you’ll get your heart pumping as you travel through rolling fields, forests, and rural roads. The route is quiet for the most part, steering you away from heavy traffic and bringing you closer to the region’s beautiful nature.

As you arrive in Levoča, make sure to cruise through its UNESCO-listed medieval center, famous for Gothic architecture and the wooden altar by Master Paul. All in all, this is a scenic 24 km adventure that’s perfect for cyclists who love a mix of history, culture, and the great outdoors!
