Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Budapest XXII. kerület à Velence

Ready for a scenic ride from Budapest’s XXII. kerület all the way to Velence? This roughly 65 km journey kicks off in Budapest’s southern suburban district, where tree-lined streets quickly give way to rolling countryside. You’ll pedal through mostly quiet roads (74%), making it a pleasant and relatively stress-free trip without much traffic to worry about.

The route is well-paved (over 90% asphalt or paved), with just the occasional short stretch of gravel or paving stones to keep things interesting. Expect some gentle climbs and descents—the highest point on your ride reaches about 257 meters, promising some lovely hilltop views on clear days.

Velence awaits at the end, famous for its namesake lake, one of Hungary’s top spots for swimming and watersports. Why not celebrate your ride with a lakeside picnic or a quick dip? All in all, it’s a relaxed countryside escape, connecting city vibes with lakeside charm. Don’t forget your camera and some sunscreen!
