Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Koszyce do Preszów

Ready for a scenic ride through eastern Slovakia? This route takes you from Košice, Slovakia’s vibrant second city, all the way north to Prešov, a historic town known for its pretty squares and cafes. The ride covers just under 55 km and features some rolling terrain—expect about 640 meters of ascent, so your legs will get a solid workout.

Most of the way is paved or asphalt, and about a third has you gliding along quiet country roads and cycleways, with only brief stretches on busier roads. There’s a good mix of surfaces, so a hybrid or gravel bike would be a smart choice. The highest point is around 425 meters, offering a few sweet panoramic views over hills and fields.

Košice is famous for its Gothic St. Elisabeth Cathedral and lively old town. When you reach Prešov, take some time to relax in its main square, lined with cafés and historic buildings. Pack a snack, enjoy the Slovak countryside, and make time for those photo stops—this route is as much about the journey as the destination!
