Excursión ciclista de un día de Košice a Gönc

This scenic ride takes you from the vibrant city of Košice, Slovakia’s second-largest city, all the way to the charming Hungarian town of Gönc. Covering just over 58 km, the route offers a calm countryside escape, mostly on quiet roads and tracks, with plenty of chances to enjoy the fresh air and rolling landscapes. Expect a mix of surfaces—there’s a good amount of paved (34%) and asphalt (28%), but be ready for some rougher bits with unpaved stretches and a hint of gravel.

Starting in Košice, known for its impressive Gothic St. Elisabeth Cathedral and lively old town, you’ll meander south towards the border, passing through villages and open farmland. With gentle climbs (341 meters of ascent in total) and gradual descents, it’s the perfect ride for those who appreciate varied terrain without anything too strenuous.

Your journey ends in Gönc, a peaceful spot famous for apricots and Tokaj wine nearby. Before you head back, don’t miss trying the local treats or enjoying a well-deserved rest in the quiet town square. A lovely cross-border adventure with a welcoming finish!
