Krisztián Szabó set out to circumnavigate the High Tatras from Füzesabony via Poland on two wheels, which he documented in detail on youtube. We can get to know the beautiful rugged landscape of the Highlands from Krisztián's point of view. If you're looking to embark on a big adventure, perhaps this documentary will be a valuable part of your preparation.

This section will take us through Poland and back into Slovakia, bypassing the High Tatras from the north and passing through Zakopane.

Author’s recommendation

In the Orava reservoir there is an island with a beautiful church on it.

Safety information

During the tour, the route often goes along with road traffic, so be sure to pay attention to traffic, but the route does not follow the route of Krisztián Szabó in its entirety. If there is an official cycle path alongside the main road, it will be preferred to the road. However, it may also be a dirt road in some places.
