In Serbia, EuroVelo 6 follows the Danube, entering at Bački Breg or Bezdan and leading cyclists through picturesque plains, historic towns and lively cities such as Sombor, Novi Sad and Belgrade before reaching the spectacular Iron Gates. Along the way, riders discover Bač and Golubac fortresses, Silver Lake, Lepenski Vir and the impressive Đerdap Gorge, enjoying a unique blend of river landscapes, cultural heritage and authentic local experiences.
When leaving Belgrade, the route takes you over the 1-km long Pančevo bridge, which can be quite busy during peak hours and has no dedicated cycle infrastructure (yet!). Cyclists can use public transport if they wish to avoid this section. Regional trains to Vršac have bike spots and run a few times a day. New trains with improved bike facilities are expected to be delivered in 2026/2027.
Public Transport and Bicycles in Serbia
Travelling with a bicycle in Serbia has become much easier in recent years, thanks to significant investments in railway infrastructure and rolling stock.
Most trains now operating in Serbia are brand new, modern sets equipped with clearly designated spaces for bicycles. On many routes, there is ample room for bikes, making train travel a convenient option for cyclists exploring the country, including sections of EuroVelo 6 – Atlantic–Black Sea.
A major improvement is the recently opened high-speed railway connecting Belgrade and Subotica via Novi Sad. This line offers frequent departures and significantly shorter travel times, providing cyclists with a fast and comfortable way to reach northern Serbia and continue their journey toward Hungary or further along the Danube corridor.
Please note that the previously mentioned bus line operating along the Danube between Belgrade and Kladovo, which was equipped with bicycle racks, is no longer in service.
