Information
Hobby tour, easy, 42 km long
While biking through the hills of the Balaton Uplands we can enjoy a special view. The diverse landscape of hills and basins with its grape and wine culture and Lake Balaton offers many attractive spectacles to visit. In the Salföld Manor we can become familiar with the native animals and the riding culture of Hungary. Before ending the tour we can climb up to the ruins of the Szigliget castle where the whole route can be admired from. In spite of the diverse landscape the routes can be travelled easily.
Highlights on the way:
