Excursión ciclista de un día de Szombathely a Vasvár

Ready for a scenic adventure between two gems in western Hungary? Hop on your bike in Szombathely, a lively city known for its Roman roots (check out the ancient Savaria ruins if you have time), and head south towards Vasvár—a charming small town rich in medieval history.

The route is about 70 km—so it’s a solid day ride. You’ll climb just over 350 meters and descend slightly more, which means some gentle ups and downs but nothing too intense. A good chunk of the route is on tracks (expect a mix of paved and rougher ground), so a gravel or mountain bike will feel right at home. About a third of the way is paved or asphalt, but be ready for some gravel and unpaved sections, giving your ride a bit of adventure.

You’ll cruise along quiet roads and cycleways for most of the journey with hardly any busy traffic. When you roll into Vasvár, take a stroll through its peaceful main square and soak in its small-town vibe—it’s the perfect finish for a memorable day in the saddle!
