Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Vác à Szob

Get ready for a scenic ride along the Danube! Starting in the charming town of Vác—famous for its Baroque architecture and lively riverside promenade—you’ll follow mostly smooth, paved cycleways as you head northwest toward Szob. This route keeps things relaxed, with just over 100 meters of gentle ascent and descent, so it’s perfect for all levels.

Most of the ride hugs the river, so you’ll enjoy fantastic views of the water and rolling hills on the other side. The path is mostly asphalt and concrete, with very little car traffic—ideal for a stress-free adventure. As you approach Szob, a peaceful little town near the Slovakian border, keep your camera ready: the river bends and forests are especially beautiful here.

This 34 km stretch is a classic section of the EuroVelo 6 and Dunakanyar (Danube Bend) cycling routes, making it popular with locals and touring cyclists alike. Whether you’re out for a leisurely day trip or connecting onto longer routes, you’ll love the riverside breeze and relaxed vibe!
