Budapest: A Week of Rest

Published by

After our epic 125km day of riding we spent the next few days holed up in our AirBnB apartment doing not much more than small, knee-creaking ventures out for groceries and gelato.  We cooked dinners in our tiny galley kitchen, caught up on Game of Thrones and basically moved as little as possible.  After about three days of that we promised that we would make an effort go out and see the city. Budapest was waiting for us. And she was glorious.

Throughout our time bike touring across Europe we could clearly see how cycle tourism has created successful businesses and kept small towns thriving.  The Danube path between Linz and Vienna is on both sides of the river to combat the large numbers of cyclists.  In quite a few sections we could see bars, grills, penzions, hotels and bike friendly signage.  Countries are now rolling out kilometer after kilometer of perfect cycleways to encourage this type of tourism.
