Waymarking

The Danube Cycleway has been adopted by the ECF (European Cyclists’ Federation) as part of EuroVelo route EV6, which runs from the Atlantic coast of France to the Black Sea. Comprehensive waymarks incorporating EV6 have been erected through Hungary and Serbia, partly so in Croatia but are not yet evident in Romania.

Principal waymarks encountered: clockwise from top left, EV6 in Hungary (definitive in green, provisional in yellow), EV6 in Croatia, EV6 fingerposts in Serbia

In Hungary EV6 is well signposted, although two kinds of EV6 waymarks are used. Those with a green background indicate the final route while those on a yellow background represent a planned route that is not yet finalised. They appear in about equal numbers, but the number of green (‘definitive’) signs is increasing. In practise this system leads to some confusion, particularly where new green signs have been installed for a definitive route but not all yellow ones removed. At one junction by the new Palace of the Arts (Stage 1) in Budapest, signs point in three directions. If you follow the route described in this guide, about half the time you will be following green waymarks and the other half you will be following yellow ones.
