In bici da Budapest IV. kerület a Budapest III. kerület

Here’s a lovely cycling route that takes you from Budapest’s IV. kerület (Újpest) over to the historic district of Óbuda-Békásmegyer. This ride is just over 6 km, so it’s perfect for a relaxed afternoon spin—most of it on dedicated cycle paths (about 75%), making it ideal if you prefer to avoid busy traffic.

You’ll begin in Újpest, a lively neighborhood known for its market halls and welcoming local atmosphere. The surface here is mostly smooth asphalt or paving stones, so you’ll have a comfortable ride from the start.

Your route leads you south-west, with gentle ups and downs (nothing more than 30 meters), and after winding through some quiet roads and stretches of dedicated cycleway, you’ll arrive in Óbuda-Békásmegyer. This district is one of the oldest parts of Budapest, known for its Roman history and charming cobbled streets. There are plenty of cafés and historic spots to explore once you arrive.

So grab your bike, enjoy the easy ride, and treat yourself to a bit of Budapest’s vibrant past and present!
