Quick ride by bicycle from Budapest VI. kerület to Budapest II. kerület

Starting your ride in Budapest VI. kerület (Terézváros), you’ll be pedaling away from the heart of downtown—home to grand boulevards, the famous Andrássy Avenue, and plenty of stylish cafés. It’s an iconic spot to kick off a city cycling adventure!

This 7.9 km route gently winds northwest toward Budapest II. kerület (Rózsadomb area), a leafy, upscale district known for its rolling hills and panoramic city views. The ride offers a nice mix of quiet city streets and cycleways, perfect for a relaxed cruise. Most of the route is paved (lots of smooth asphalt), though you’ll hit some charming paving stones in a few places.

Don’t be surprised by the climb: there’s a gradual ascent as you approach the hills of II. kerület, with over 130 meters gained—enough to warm up the legs! Once you reach the leafy streets and hilltop villas of II. kerület, reward yourself with the classic views over Budapest or a coffee in one of the peaceful parks. Great route for anyone wanting to see two different faces of the city!
