The Tour de Hongrie () is a professional road bicycle stage race organized in Hungary since 1925.

History

The inaugural Tour de Hongrie took place on 27 June 1925. The cyclists hit the road as early as four in the morning, and the Budapest–Szombathely–Győr-Budapest stage was accomplished the quickest by Károly Jerzsabek, who covered the distance of 510.5 kilometres in 22 hours and 10 minutes to become the first ever champion of the event.

The race was held every year until World War II, except in 1928 when Budapest hosted the UCI Road World Championship and 1936 when cyclists were in the middle of the preparation for the Olympic Games. During the World War, the event was held twice on a shortened distance; however, following the political changes in the country it was staged only occasionally. Moreover, no competitions were held between 1964 and 1992.

After the fall of communism in Hungary, the Tour the Hongrie was organized again by the Hungarian Cycling Federation in 1993, and was held until 2008 with only shorter interruptions. In 2007, the field of the tour left the actual borders of the country for the first time, when the third stage of the race began in Sátoraljaújhely and ended in Košice, Slovakia. Up to the present, the 2008 edition was the last fixture of the event, after that the Hungarian stages have been integrated to another competition, the Central European Tour. It was then incorporated into the UCI ProSeries from 2023. In 2025, Tour de Hongrie joined the AIOCC (Association Internationale des Organisateurs de Courses Cyclistes).
