The Sultans Trail between Budapest and Belgrade traverses a region characterized by its moderately cold December weather, with temperatures generally ranging from lows around -2°C to highs of 9°C. The route moves through areas that experience a mix of conditions, including partly cloudy skies and overcast days frequently. Days of sunlight are interspersed throughout, making for an unpredictable but varied atmosphere.

Precipitation is spread regularly along the trail, commonly occurring as rain showers, though freezing rain and snow are possible, particularly in areas with higher elevation or colder microclimates. Precipitation ranges from an average of less than 1 mm to a little over 3 mm per day. While dampness is a consistent companion, extreme weather is not common.

As the trail progresses southward from Hungary into Serbia, the likelihood of encountering both sunny days and overcast conditions remains significant. Cloudy periods are interspersed with brief showers, and the possibility of freezing temperatures underscores the need to be prepared for cold and wet conditions. Overall, the trail offers fluctuating weather with notable regional variations but remains manageable for most adventurers, with caution advised regarding the possibility of freezing rain and snow.

This overview is for an early December start, walking the standard stages.
But, I'll be happy to make one specifically for this forecast.
