How to get in shape or discover Chopok – south and its surroundings on two wheels

Cycling is becoming increasingly popular. And not just thanks to Peter Sagan. More and more we long to move after a week at the desk and not only that.. we miss the fresh air, the mountains, and connecting with nature. If we conquer a hill along the way, our joints won't hurt and the reward will be a panoramic view of the beautiful Slovak nature, guaranteeing a great experience.

We have prepared a few tips on what a cycling holiday at HOTEL PARTIZÁN**** in Tále can look like:

1. Road bikes

We can store them without any problems in our bike rental shop, which is protected by an alarm. There is service available during the day. Basic necessities such as helmets, protectors, and tools needed for possible repairs are available for rental.

Directly at Hotel Partizán**** there is a paved road which you can take to:
- Krpáčovo and return through a roundabout via Dolná Lehota, Podbrezová and Bystrá
- Trangoška - Srdiečko
- to the village Bystrá and make a loop through Brezno and Mýto pod Ďumbierom
