A fantastic warm-up loop to wake up your legs and get the cadence going at the eastern tip of Lake Balaton! At just about 45 km, this compact route is the ideal ride to kick off your season, spin the legs on an active recovery day, or get a quick, quality workout in.
Starting from Balatonfőkajár, the first half takes you well away from coastal traffic along remarkably quiet country backroads where the plains meet the foothills: riding through Csajág, Küngös, Berhida, and Vilonya before reaching Litér. Navigation is effortless with clear signposting along the entire loop, and the safe, low-traffic asphalt makes it easy to lock into a steady cruising speed.
Past Litér, the route rolls back towards the lake at Balatonfűzfő, continuing through Balatonkenese and Balatonakarattya with sparkling water views before bringing you back to the start in Balatonfőkajár.
