Saddle up! Get on your bike!

Lake Fertő is widely known as one of Hungary's most popular cycling routes. The Hungarian and Austrian villages, the wild reeds, the diverse wildlife of the national park, the hilly vineyards and the slopes of the South-Alps can all be explored even in a single day. This landscape offers relaxing opportunities for both families and those cycling at a more energetic pace.

The locally organized cycling tour (the so called 'Fertő-tekergő') in May offers a wide range of excursion programs! The 117 km cycling tour was organized originally as part of World Heritage Day. UNESCO declared Lake Fertő a World Heritage Site in 2001 due to its exceptional natural and cultural features on Austrian and Hungarian initiatives.

If you are the sports lover in your family, but other family members prefer less strenuous freetime activities, there are countless programs available in the area for them throughout the weekend as well.

A unique way to get around the lake is on a guided tour organized by the Fertő-tekergő cycling tour, running along the Hegykő - Fertőrákos - Purbach - Neusiedl am See - Illmitz - Fertőújlak - Hegykő route. While you enjoy a muesli bar or a sip of water at one of the refreshment and resting stops, you'll learn about the landscape's curiosities and natural wonders through the guides' narration. After relaxing in the Fertőrákos quarry, you might want to visit the cave theater later on, enjoy the local wines in Purbach's cellars or get to know the inhabitants of the bird sanctuary at the Illmitz National Park Center.

And finally: how can a happy group celebrate the successful completion of their goal? With music and a goulash party in the evening, of course!

For further practical information about the tour and participation, we recommend for you to visit the website of 'Fertő-tekergő': www.fertotekergo.hu and the event’s Facebook page.
