The 4.8 km-long Maros riverside hiking trail (also a cycling trail), connecting Makó and Apátfalva, was established in 2020 and is maintained by local volunteers and residents. The trail begins at the Liget Street railway crossing (Green marking), continues through the Adventure Park and the Kőrös-Maros National Park area to Apátfalva, passing the scenic quarry lakes and the Lúdvár islands. Hikers can learn about the landscape and wildlife from 11 informational boards.

In 2022, a resting area was created along the trail, named after Mendei Árpád, a local patriot and honorary citizen of the city. The bench-lined resting area features a commemorative plaque with Mendei’s favorite quote. An outdoor sculpture shaped like a satchel hanging on a walking stick holds 12 small plaques commemorating stages of his rich life journey. Every year, local residents celebrate World Walking Day with the Mendei Árpád Memorial Hike.
