Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Pomáz à Pilisszentkereszt

This is a scenic and fairly challenging ride from Pomáz to Pilisszentkereszt, covering just over 24 km and packing in a serious amount of climbing—over 840 meters of ascent! You’ll start in Pomáz, a town at the gateway to the Pilis Hills, known for its historical vibe and proximity to lush forests.

The route winds northwest, taking you up some sustained, quiet climbs as you enter the green heart of the Pilis Mountains. You'll spend most of your time on peaceful paved or asphalt roads, with short stretches on gravel or unpaved tracks—so a gravel or sturdy road bike is ideal. Get ready for some beautiful forest sections and panoramic views, especially as you approach the higher points near 580 meters elevation.

The route finishes in Pilisszentkereszt, a charming little village rich in Hungarian history and surrounded by dense woodland. It’s a perfect spot to catch your breath and maybe refuel at a local café. If you love nature and don’t mind a bit of leg-burning ascent, this ride’s a winner!
