The stage of EuroVelo 13 – Iron Curtain Trail on the Hungarian and Slovenian border is located almost entirely on the Slovenian side of the border. First crossing the border close to the Hungarian town of Kétvölgy, the route sticks closely to the national border making its way through quiet countryside dotted with small settlements on its way to Lendava – the most significant town on this stage. After leading the Lendava, the Iron Curtain Trail continues through vineyards in a south easterly direction hugging the national border before crossing back into Hungary just after the village of Pince.

The development of EuroVelo 13 – Iron Curtain Trail is supported by the Interreg Central Europe project ICTr-CE. In the context of the project, ECF together with project partners developed an innovative cycling product - known as Good Impact Cycling - sold by official EuroVelo 13 Booking Centres to allow cyclists to experience the Iron Curtain Trail while leaving a positive influence. Using tools such as the CARMACAL carbon footprint calculator and the Impact Measurement System, the offers estimate the environmental and social impact of the tours. The Good Impact Programme reduces these impacts by allocating funds to projects focusing on environmental, social, and economic impacts, strengthening the positive contributions of cycling tourism to the regions.
