Description

We start our day in the romantic village of the Danube bend called Nagymaros. After picking up the modern e-mountain bikes we start our ride on cycling lines to Zebegény, the little treasure box of the area. We cycle next to the river bank and admire the second longest river of Europe, the Danube. From Zebegény we start our ascent on calm forest trails to the Börzsöny mountains.

If you are happy for some challenges and ready for a sweaty climb, we optionally visit the Julianus lookout tower, with amazing panorama to the river and the castle of Visegrád. We continue on a closed forest road and as for our first break we stop by at a meadow with a little animal park. If the buffet is open, you can have a refreshing drink and visit the animals in the park.

From here we continue our ride on low traffic roads in the mountain among old beech and oak trees. After spending two hours on the mountain we start our descend to the river bank and on the way back to the starting point we stop by at a charming little pub for a refreshing beer or soft drink.

We use e-bikes that are equipped with electronic engines that help you to paddle. This means that the uphills are much easier than with a normal bike and you can paddle more with the same effort as on a normal bike.

The route is 47 kilometers, usually takes about 4 hours net plus the breaks.
