Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Liptovský Mikuláš à Ružomberok

Get ready for a stunning ride through northern Slovakia! This route starts in Liptovský Mikuláš, a lively town known for its proximity to the beautiful Tatras and the huge Liptovská Mara reservoir. You’ll travel west towards Ružomberok, weaving through the scenic Liptov region with the Low Tatra mountains at your side.

The ride covers just over 52 km and, while you’ll do some climbing—almost 780 meters in total—the descents are even longer, so expect some fun downhill stretches. Most of the route rolls along quiet roads and countryside tracks, perfect for soaking in local villages and meadows. Be prepared for mixed surfaces: while there’s a good portion of smooth asphalt, you’ll also find plenty of gravel and some unpaved sections, so a trekking or gravel bike would be ideal.

Your destination, Ružomberok, is a historic town nestled at the edge of the Veľká Fatra mountains with a laid-back vibe—a great spot to relax after your ride. Whether you’re chasing fresh mountain air or just exploring new corners of Slovakia, this route delivers both adventure and gorgeous landscapes!
