Individual arrival.
The paradise starts behind Vienna: enjoy the untouched meadows of the danube nationalpark. You can visit the baroque hunting castle of Eckartsau or the romain world in the archeological park of Carnuntum. The old city of Hainburg with it's small center represents different styles of architecture from several areas.
The capital of Slovakia with its impressive old center is the first highlight. Leaving Bratislava the landscape is changing and you will be immersed into the idyllic landscape of "Little Alföld". You bike through small typical villages using the dam cycle path and country roads.

The National Stud of Babolna is world famous for its Arabian horse breeding and is defiantly worth a stroll through. While you are visiting the Studs and the Stud Museum you can catch a glimpse of some secrets Hungarian horse breeding techniques and methods. After cycling through the lush rolling hills into the village of Komarom, you will find your accommodations in the favorite village of renowned King Matthias.
