Relaxing Water and Bike Tour on the River Tisza

A shortened version of the classical water tour, offered for near beginners and  families who tend to paddle on/ride a bike with others having children as well. Being rich in ’golden sand’ this reach of the river is suitable for people who prefer bathing and having fun besides paddling. Throughout spending time on the most popular beaches you have the possibility to touch some cultural and historical sights of North- Eastern Hungary.

Duration: 6 days, 7 nights.

Total length: 59 r.km

Route: Tiszabecs- Szatmárcseke (24 r.km), Szatmárcseke- Tivadar (15 r.km), Tivadar- Gergelyiugornya (20 r.km)

A planned schedule:

Day 1:  After arriving at Vidám Delfin Kemping (Happy Dolphin Campsite), dinner, social evening, etc.

 Day 3:  Water trip from Tiszabecs to Szatmárcseke, on the upper flow of the Tisza. From Tiszabecs on, pebbled shores are existing so the water is absolutely clear there. The first Hungarian sand shore can be found in Szatmárcseke. Daily reach: 24 r.km.

Day 4:  Water trip from Szatmárcseke to Tivadar, the Tiszanian ’Las Vegas’ which is the most eye- catching spot of the Tisza. In every 2 kilometre, every bend, spectacular sandy shores display tourists and bathers; therefore live music awaits people on the beach at night. Day distance: 15 r.km
