The self-governing region of Trenčín has so far built 4 sections of cycle paths with a total length of 50.1 km, the first of which was opened in 2018. The movement of cyclists on them is monitored by 5 enumerators.

And those are the ones who have recorded almost 1.5 million cyclists on the cycle paths built by TSK since the construction of the first section. Historically, the largest number of cyclists rode on them on June 6, 2021 , there were almost 9 thousand of them. " The most popular cycle route is Trenčín - Nemšová , from which you can connect to the cycle route leading to the border with the Czech Republic and the village of Svätý Štepán. Since its opening, more than 645,000 cyclists have passed through it, "said Ondrej Repka, cycling coordinator of TSK. According to the statistics from the enumerators , the increased movement of cyclists on a daily basis is visible during the commute to work between 6 and 8 a.m., then around 10 a.m. The peak of daily use is between 3 and 5 p.m. , during which cycle paths are used for transportation from work to home or for recreational cycling.

The county of Trenčín continues to build other sections of cycle routes with a length of more than 22 km ; it is the section between the village of Ladce and the city of Púchov and the section from Považská Bystrica to the border with the Žilina self-governing region. Both sections will expand the possibilities of more ecological commuting to work. In addition, the section from Považská Bystrica to the border with the Žilina self-governing region also leads around the high school campus, where students can also use the bike path on their way to school.
