Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Budapest III. kerület à Szentendre

This route takes you from Óbuda-Békásmegyer, a historic and relaxed neighborhood in the north of Budapest, up to the charming town of Szentendre along the scenic Danube bend. It’s about 21 km and mostly flat, with just a few gentle rises (total ascent under 72 meters), making it great for all experience levels.

You’ll roll out of Óbuda, known for its Roman history and laid-back vibe, and quickly find yourself on quiet roads and dedicated cycleways—the route is over 80% smooth asphalt and 93% paved overall. There are short stretches of paving stones and cobblestone, especially near Szentendre’s old town, so be ready for a little bumpy charm at the end.

The Danube will be your near-constant companion, providing great river views all the way into Szentendre. Once you arrive, treat yourself: Szentendre is famous for its pastel-colored houses, art galleries, and inviting riverside cafes. Perfect for a relaxed ride with a dollop of culture at the finish.
