Day 7: Balatonfodvar – Lake Sirava


Today’s plan would take us from Hungary to Slovakia, close to 480km of road. Not much to say, but to again praise the Deuch. Another outstanding performance! Always on a very steady pace and demanding little stopovers. Altogether we were 7 hours on the road, including a detour by Budapest, where we got a little bit lost. During all this time, only two stops to put some gas. As we both had the feeling our destination was just around the corner (well, what’s 480km for us now?), we just wanted to keep on going.

Again, we drove mostly through secondary roads, through first the Hungarian and later the Slovakian countryside, coming across some great sites and lovely little towns. The way you feel the places you are travelling through is so much stronger when you adventure yourself through the minor roads. And not like we are going to exceed 100km/h anyway.

KILOMETRES (Total): 3656km
KM SINCE LAST SPOT: 484km
GAS SPENT(Total):235,09l
