THE SZELID CYCLING

We regularly report about Lake Szelidi, which is a stone's throw away from Gombolyag (it doesn't matter who the thrower is), most recently in connection with the August running race, in which we became hosts ourselves, but a few years ago we have made a short pocket camera music video as well. Now, however, we were pleased to read about the extension of the EU-funded cycle path around the lake by 1.1 km. This section is connected to the 3.5 km long existing cycle path connecting Dunapataj with Lake Szelidi, which was also renovated as part of the project.

The new section connects to the existing bike path on Szittyó Square on the shores of Lake Szelidi, and follows the path of the Kékmoszat educational trail around the lake before turning into the woods and then turning back to the old bike path. The investment is aimed at cycling in the area boosting tourism, said Csaba Dusnoki, Mayor of Dunapataj: "As part of developments related to active tourism, we have expanded the Lake Szelidi cycle path network with a new section, renovated the old cycle path and improved public safety by installing solar-powered lights and bicycle-friendly project elements along the cycle path, and bringing services to support cycling tourism. created."

In addition to the two cycle paths, rest areas with tables, benches, trash cans and bicycle storage have been set up, as well as an information point and various information boards. A bicycle service center with brakes, gearboxes and bicycle pumps was also set up, and the two cycle paths were equipped with solar-powered lights.
