Sortie rapide à vélo de Budapest II. kerület à Solymár

This ride takes you from the leafy neighborhoods of Budapest’s 2nd district up into the scenic foothills around Solymár—a classic gateway to the Buda hills! Starting amid the grand villas and green parks of the II. kerület, you’ll wind your way northwards, mostly along peaceful roads and designated cycleways (so it’s a pretty mellow ride traffic-wise).

There’s a bit of a workout involved—nearly 300 meters of climbing, but it pays off with lovely views and sweet descents as you leave the bustle of Budapest behind. Expect mostly smooth, paved surfaces, with a little bit of gravel and some charming paving stones to keep things interesting. As you roll into Solymár, you’ll find yourself in a quiet little town famous for its castle ruins and lush forests. If you feel like stretching your legs, try a short hike to the Solymár castle ruins or grab a coffee at one of the cozy local cafés—the perfect end to a fun, hilly city escape!
