We start from the hills of Écs with their deep ravines and head toward the Bakony. During the course of this tour we will have plenty of opportunity to become acquainted with the towns and villages on our way and to enjoy the beautiful scenery.

The Váh is the longest river in Slovakia and forms the eastern border of the Rye Island (Žitný ostrov); it flows into the Danube River at the town of Komárno. The floodplain forests on the banks of the river are similar to those that enrich the banks of the Danube. The coastline is sandy at some places, almost “beach-like”, which makes it easy for enthusiasts to push their boats into the water. The one-day water tour we offer starts in the town of Kolárovo and ends in Komárno at the confluence of the two rivers. The distance is a total of 23 km offering a 5-hour boat trip for the lovers of active tourism. However, if you wish to add sightseeing to your water tour, both the starting point and the destination are perfect for this purpose. Perhaps the best-known watermill in the Rye Island is the ship mill in Kolárovo, which commemorates the agricultural history of the area. Komárno is also a perfect destination for sightseeing, especially for those who love history, as the fortification system and the György Klapka Square are also sights one should not miss.

This pilgrimage includes sights such as the Benedictine Abbey of Pannonhalma, downtown Győr, then from Lébény, we head for Mosonmagyaróvár and Rajka, then it is on to Slovakia and Austria. In Wolfsthal we will join the official pilgrimage heading for Santiago de Compostela, the Camino de Santiago.
