Excursión ciclista de un día de Partizánske a Zlaté Moravce

Looking for a scenic, slightly challenging ride in western Slovakia? This route takes you from the small industrial town of Partizánske to the historical town of Zlaté Moravce, covering just under 43 km. You’ll start in Partizánske, a town with roots in shoe manufacturing and named after local partisan activity in WWII. From there, you’ll ride mostly along quiet country tracks and peaceful roads—perfect for soaking in rolling hills and rural views.

Be ready for some climbing: there’s over 860 meters of ascent along the way, reaching up to about 563 meters at your highest point. You’ll pass through fields, forested sections, and traditional villages—plan for some unpaved and gravel stretches, so a sturdy bike is a good pick. The last stretch rolls you gently into Zlaté Moravce, a historic market town known for its old churches and peaceful atmosphere.

Don’t forget water and a snack for the ride—you’ll enjoy this mix of natural beauty and local culture!
