Paseo rápido en bici de Krasňany a Terchová

Get ready for a fun ride starting in the charming village of Krasňany, tucked beneath the Mala Fatra mountains. This 14 km cycling route takes you east toward the legendary town of Terchová—famous as the birthplace of Slovak folk hero Juraj Jánošík.

The journey is mostly along paved and asphalt roads (around 79%), and you’ll spend a good part of it on dedicated cycleways and quiet local roads that let you soak in the countryside without too much traffic. There’s a gentle ascent of about 160 meters—enough to get your heart going, but nothing too hardcore. Rolling past forests and rural scenery, a few gravel patches keep things interesting, so a hybrid or trekking bike is your best bet.

Finish in Terchová, which is a fantastic base for exploring Malá Fatra National Park—with its hiking trails and folklore-themed attractions. Reward yourself with local sheep cheese or traditional Slovak fare in one of the mountain pubs. Happy cycling!
