The Tour of Szeklerland is a European cycling stage race held in Székely Land, Romania. Since 2008, the race has been organised as a 2.2 event on the UCI Europe Tour.
Founders Eduard Novák and Róbert Ráduly organized the first edition in 2006 as a regional competition. By 2008, the Tour of Szeklerland became the first cycling race in Romania to hold a UCI 2.2 category. Later that same year, the Tour of Romania also entered this category.[1]
In 2022, for the first time in its history, the competition began outside Romania, with the starting line set in Debrecen, Hungary.[2]
As of 2024, no Romanian or Hungarian rider has won the race.
