Gita in bici di un giorno da Strigonio a Budapest VI. kerület

This ride takes you from the historic city of Esztergom, home to Hungary’s largest basilica and perched right on the Danube, all the way into the lively heart of Budapest’s 6th district. At just under 93 km, it’s a solid day ride, mostly on paved roads and smooth cycleways, so you can settle into a rhythm and just enjoy the scenery.

You’ll trace the curves of the Danube for much of the trip, which means gentle climbs and descents—just over 320 meters of up and a similar amount down, nothing too dramatic. As you ride through small riverside towns, look out for castle ruins and traces of Roman history, especially near Visegrád.

The final stretch brings you into Budapest, one of Europe’s coolest capitals. VI. kerület (Terézváros) is famous for its grand boulevards, cozy cafés, and the iconic Andrássy Avenue. Perfect spot to grab a coffee and soak up the city vibe! Overall, it’s a route that mixes history, river scenery, and smooth cycling—highly recommended for a long, but rewarding day out.
