Excursión ciclista de un día de Sátoraljaújhely a Gönc

Get ready for a scenic adventure starting in Sátoraljaújhely, a charming border town famed for its hilltop castle and the Zemplén Adventure Park. Your ride to Gönc covers just over 51 km and takes you deep into northern Hungary’s picturesque landscapes.

The route will challenge your legs, with about 827 meters of climbing—expect some solid hills as you ride through the Zemplén Mountains. Surfaces are a real mix: while almost a third is smooth asphalt, you’ll tackle plenty of tracks (including gravel and ground), making this ideal for gravel bikes or sturdy hybrids.

You’ll wind through forests, quiet roads, and authentic villages, soaking in the peaceful vibes of the Hungarian countryside. Watch out for the “missing surface” segments—those could throw in a little off-the-beaten-track excitement!

When you roll into Gönc, reward yourself with some famous Gönc apricot pálinka (brandy)—the town is celebrated for its orchards and fruit brandy. This memorable route is perfect for adventurous cyclists keen on exploring Hungary’s lesser-known wonders.
