Cycle through the former marsh region of the "Little Alföld". Using side roads pass through delightful villages and arrive at the provincial capital of Györ.

It has an enchanting centre with beautiful Baroque buildings.

Today the landscape is one of rolling hills on the journey to the picturesque town of Tata, situated on two lakes . Explore its fine Baroque and Renaissance buildings,vist the open air theatre or sit at a cafe enjoying a glass of the local wine.

Day 6. TATA - ESZTERGOM/STUROVO 34ml(55km)

Leaving Tata travel over the densely wooded hills of the "Gerecse" range. Some uphill stretches are rewarded with wonderful descents.
