POSTPONED:UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE

THE WORLD'S LARGEST JEWISH CYCLING EVENT

It is with a heavy heart that we announce, that the 2023 Tour De Maccabi is postponed until futher notice. The current funding environment and the lackluster interest from large Maccabi delegations will not make it viable to hold this year’s Tour De Maccabi.

Thanks for your continued interest.

RIDING.FROM POLAND TO HUNGARY

THE WORLD'S LARGEST JEWISH CYCLING EVENT

Under the umbrella of Maccabi Europe the first Tour De Maccabi will take amateur and professional Jewish cyclists from Krakow, Poland to Budapest, Hungary. In what’s shaping up to be the world’s largest Jewish cycling event, you’ll have chance to cycle through breathtaking Eastern European country roads, experience charming medieval hamlets and enchanted forests. Spend 10 days with members of the tribe from all over the world. Go for the gold in our competition section or just come for the thrill and adventure.

Cycling through rich Jewish history.

Celebrating our heritage and community.

Ride with the peloton across the heart of Jewish Eastern Europe. Riders complete 60-70 kms each day which leaves time for visiting historical Jewish sights along the way, such as ghetto of Krakow, Jewish museum of Slovakia, hassidic pilgrimage sight of Eastern Hungary as well as abandoned and forgotten cemeteries off the beaten path. The 10 days Jewish cycling race and tour will have its grand finish in front of Europe’s largest synagogue on Dohany Street in Budapest.
