Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Stupava à Bratislava

Kick off your ride in the charming town of Stupava, known for its leafy parks and Baroque manor house, before heading south toward Slovakia’s bustling capital. This ~24.5 km route to Bratislava combines rolling hills with some nice stretches of quiet roads—perfect if you’re after a relaxed, scenic outing with a bit of a challenge (expect a total ascent over 500 meters!).

Most of the path is on paved and asphalt roads, winding through peaceful countryside and, when the trees clear, offering some great views of the Small Carpathians. You’ll hit a few short gravel sections, adding a touch of adventure, but nothing too technical. Once you get closer to Bratislava, you’ll notice the countryside blending into the urban vibe of Slovakia’s biggest city—famous for its riverfront, medieval old town, and vibrant cafés. Overall, it’s a lovely half-day ride with a mix of nature and city energy at the finish!
