Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Bratislava à Gabčíkovo

Get ready for a classic ride from Bratislava down to Gabčíkovo—a favorite among local cyclists! This route stretches about 63 km, following mostly smooth, paved cycleways that hug the Danube. If you love waterside views and flat terrain with just a gentle ascent and descent, you’re in for a treat—most of the path is only a whisper away from the river, and there’s very little traffic to worry about.

You’ll kick things off in Slovakia’s vibrant capital, Bratislava, known for its historic old town and lively cafés. As you roll out, the city scenery gives way to peaceful floodplains, forests, and the iconic Danube embankment. The route is well-marked and pretty much stress-free, making it perfect for social rides or solo escapes.

Soon, you’ll spot the impressive Gabčíkovo Dam—your finish line—which is an engineering marvel and a top spot for birdwatching and watersports. Don’t forget to chill by the water or grab an ice cream before heading back!

So, pump up your tires, pack some snacks, and enjoy one of the smoothest, most scenic rides Slovakia has to offer.
