Rowerowa z Budapest IV. kerület do Budakalász

Here’s a great ride if you’re looking for a relaxed route out of the city! Starting in Budapest’s IV. kerület (Újpest), you’ll be rolling through a friendly and mostly residential part of Budapest, known for its leafy streets and local market vibe. The bulk of your 13 km journey heads north, and—good news—much of it follows smooth cycleways and quiet roads, perfect for an easy cruise.

As you pedal along, you’ll glimpse the Danube and gradually leave the city bustle behind for the calming rhythm of suburban life. The ascent is minimal, so this ride’s gentle on the legs—just a couple of small hills to keep it interesting.

Your destination, Budakalász, is a charming riverside town just at the foot of the Pilis hills, popular for its tranquil lakeside spots and access to hiking and biking trails beyond. With over 80% paved surfaces and little time spent on busy roads, this is a smooth, scenic trip that’s beginner-friendly and full of Hungarian charm.
