Bega Bike Path

Highlight • Cycleway

14.5 km

The Bega river has long been fixed into a canal, with the old towpath, mostly on the northern bank, now a perfectly paved bike trail, best connection West from Timisoara. Unfortunately it ends abruptly at the Serbian border without a crossing or even any trail on the other side. Classic contrast between well-funded tourism infrastructure in an EU country ending right at one of the few borders in Europe. So exit at Otrlec and take the road to the Foeni crossing.

The Cathedral of Saint George (Romanian: Catedrala Sfântul Gheorghe din Timișoara, Hungarian: Szent György Római Katolikus Székesegyház) is a Roman Catholic church located on Cathedral Square (Romanian: Piața Unirii) in the center of the 1st District (Cetate) of Timișoara (German: Temeswar), a city in western Romania.

The cathedral is the cathedral of the Diocese of Timișoara and is dedicated to Saint George. It is the second largest Baroque church in Southeast Europe after the Cathedral of Oradea. The cathedral's floor plan is in the shape of a double cross, measuring 55 meters long, 22 meters wide, and reaching an interior height of 16.9 meters. The towers are 35.5 meters high. The church is a listed historical monument. (Wikipedia)

The paintings are particularly worth seeing, and you should take your time to appreciate the beautiful details.
