Excursión ciclista de un día de Bratislava a Svätý Jur

Kick off your ride in Slovakia’s lively capital, Bratislava, and set course north towards the charming wine town of Svätý Jur. This 29-km route is a favorite among local cyclists, winding from urban cityscapes into the rolling foothills of the Little Carpathians. You’ll tackle nearly 800 meters of ascent, with max elevation just over 550 meters—expect a few climbs, but you’re well-rewarded with sweeping views across vineyards and forests.

Most of the ride is on blissfully quiet, smooth roads (less than 2% cobbles, if you’re counting). Once you hit the outskirts, enjoy peaceful tracks flanked by nature and the occasional historic manor house. Svätý Jur at your journey’s end is famous for its medieval old town and local wines—perfect for a celebratory glass. Bonus fact: Both Bratislava and Svätý Jur are part of Slovakia’s celebrated wine region. This route is a real treat for anyone wanting a blend of city, hill, and heritage in a single spin.
