Dunav Ultra Cycle Route is the largest tourist bicycle route Bulgaria. The route connects the most Northwest populated settlement of Bulgaria – the village of Kudelin (near Bregovo, Bulgarian-Serbian border) and the most Northeast populated settlement of the country – the village of Durankulak (near Vama Veche, Bulgarian-Romanian border).
The route bears the name of the Danube (Dunav=Danube in Bulgarian) as on its “classic” version goes more than 500 km close/next to the River.

As the Danube valley in Bulgaria is not so populated region in present days, the area is wild and beautiful in an exotic way.  Enjoy our gallery  related to the Dunav Ultra route, and feel the Bulgarian spirit of the Great River.
