375 km from Sátoraljaújhely to Sátoraljaújhely, about 7 h 48 of riding. It goes by way of Ancient and Primeval Beech Forests of the, Uzhok-Tserkva of the Synaxis of the Archan and back through Ancient and Primeval Beech Forests of the. It crosses from Slovakia into Ukraine - carry ID and check vignette or toll rules. A steady touring day rather than a sprint.
Sátoraljaújhely is a town split in two by a river and a border. The Ronyva stream divides it into a Hungarian half and a Slovak half, Slovenské Nové Mesto, and the line became a national frontier after the First World War, when streets and gardens were cut in two. Today the border is open and easy to cross, and a pleasant walk takes you from one country to the other along the bank. The town sits at the northern tip of the Tokaj wine region, where the Zemplén hills fall to the plain, and it is a good starting point for exploring that country.

Snina is a small town at the foot of the Bukovské Hills, in the far north-east corner of Slovakia, a place where the road seems to run out of country. Beyond lies the Ukrainian border and the forests of the Eastern Carpathians, and the ancient beech woods around Rožok are part of a transnational UNESCO site, listed in 2007 and since enlarged, that protects some of the last primeval beech forests in Europe. Here the trees grow in the old way, with fallen trunks left to rot, mosses carpeting the forest floor and giant beeches reaching skyward. The silence is deep and green.

Ancient and Primeval Beech Forests of the comes up about 89 km into the recorded legs. Next is Uzhok-Tserkva of the Synaxis of the Archan.
Just below the pass that carries the road and railway from Uzhhorod into Galicia, the village of Uzhok keeps one of the finest wooden churches of the Carpathians. The tserkva of the Synaxis of the Archangel Michael was built in the middle of the eighteenth century in the Boyko style, with three log chambers each topped by a tiered roof, rising in stages like a set of stacked hats, all covered in wooden shingles. It stands on a slope among old trees, with a separate bell tower nearby, and it is one of the sixteen wooden tserkvas of the Carpathian region in Poland and Ukraine listed by UNESCO in 2013.
