Throughout
history, people traded amber
along this route, leading
through Hungary,
Slovakia, and Poland. On this bicycle tour,
ride from artist's
town
of Szentendre, biking
the Danube bend to
Banska
Stiavnica, an old
mining town in the
hills. Here the cycling
gets more challenging,
crossing the Low
Tatras and West part of
the High Tatras.
Your reward is the superb
panoramic views
of the breath-taking
Slovakian countryside
dotted with traditional
mountain villages,
meadows and pastures. You will see
traditional
handcrafts such as
carpets being
hand made in the village of
Malatina. Biking
into Poland
you will visit
the pilgrimage site
of
Kalwaria Zebrzydowska.
Finish in Krakow,
rivaling Prague
with its historical monuments.
