Gita in bici di un giorno da Piešťany a Nové Mesto nad Váhom

Here’s a relaxed cycling route that takes you from the spa town of Piešťany to the charming historic town of Nové Mesto nad Váhom. The ride covers just over 22 km, mostly on smooth, paved roads—perfect for a leisurely journey through the rolling western Slovakian countryside.

You’ll start in Piešťany, famous for its thermal springs and picturesque riverside parks—a cycling-friendly town where you might spot swans along the Váh river. Heading north, the route is mostly flat with only a gentle ascent of about 38 meters, so it’s beginner-friendly and not too taxing on the legs.

With mostly smooth tarmac under your wheels and minimal traffic, this ride is ideal for a mellow afternoon adventure, whether you’re solo or with friends. Don’t forget to snap a photo by the river in both towns—they’re local gems!
