Sights along the new sections of the soon to be completed Tokaj circuit bike route

Tokaj

First, it is worth visiting the city of Tokaj, which has many unique features. The baroque-style buildings, the hills dotted with vineyards, and the bike path along the Tisza River all contribute to making your time here unforgettable. And while we are talking about Tokaj, why not try a water tour! Cycling north from Tokaj, we reach the Bodrog River, one of the region’s most significant rivers. The Kenubázis is also located here, where it is worth hopping on a boat and participating in a kayak or canoe tour, which can be an excellent addition to bike tours during hot summer days.

Tarcal

Turning back and passing by the Tokaj-Tisza bridge, the journey can continue along the existing Tokaj-Tarcal bike path, where we soon reach Tarcal. This settlement is a real treasure trove of the Tokaj wine region. Here you can find, among others, the world-famous Béres Vineyard and Winery, where you can not only taste excellent wines, but also take part in wine tasting tours. In addition to wine, it is also worth visiting the Blessing Christ statue and the nearby quarry pond.

Bodrogkeresztúr

Leaving the village and continuing along the main road, we just arrive at Bodrogkeresztúr located in the bay, which can also be an interesting stop on the excursion. The medieval castle can be reached with a short walk, which was originally built as a church, and today it is functioned as the Tokaj Wine Region Museum. A new bike rest area has been built here, right next to the popular and beloved Lebuj Restaurant. It’s always worth stopping by Lebuj for a few delicious bites.

To have enough time to discover the sights here, it is worth dedicating at least a full day to the bike tour.

The surroundings of Kopasz-hegy are waiting for you too!
