Sortie rapide à vélo de Budapest IX. kerület à Budapest XI. kerület

Ready for a quick pedal from Budapest’s buzzing District IX to the laid-back vibes of Újbuda? This easy-going 6.5 km ride mostly rolls over smooth asphalt and quiet residential streets, so it’s a chill cruise—great for beginners or anyone wanting a break from city stress.

You’ll start near the heart of Budapest’s IX. kerület, famous for its cool cafes and the revamped riverside promenade. Heading southwest, the route keeps things pleasant with very little traffic and even a dedicated cycleway for about 40% of the distance. Along the way, you’ll pass a few stretches of cobbled paving stones—just enough to keep your senses awake, but nothing tricky.

As you cross into Újbuda, the city’s largest district on the Buda side, you’ll find a relaxed neighborhood with leafy streets and plenty of local spots to stop and grab a coffee or snack. With barely 19 meters of ascent, and even a gentle downhill to help you finish, it’s a perfect route for a breezy afternoon or a relaxed commute. Happy cycling!
