Bikepacking z Bratysława do Štúrovo

Set off from Bratislava, Slovakia’s lively capital perched on the Danube, and get ready for a scenic journey down to Štúrovo at the Hungarian border. This ride rolls out over roughly 166 km, tracking the Danube for much of the way and offering breezy river views and charming riverside villages as your backdrop.

The route is mostly super comfortable for cyclists—primarily smooth asphalt, with over three-quarters following dedicated cycleways. There's hardly any climbing (just under 300 meters of ascent), so it’s perfect for those looking to cruise on a long-distance ride rather than grind up big hills. Expect a relaxed vibe as you glide through quiet countryside and even catch sight of vineyards near the halfway point.

Your finish line, Štúrovo, sits right on the Danube opposite the historic Hungarian town of Esztergom, famous for its grand basilica. This makes for the perfect post-ride wander and a celebratory meal with a river view. Just bring a little energy, a picnic, and sunscreen—the ride is gentle, but it’s still a full day out on two wheels!
