Cycling day trip from Kukatpally to Hyderabad

Spin out from Kukatpally, the lively northwest suburb known for KPHB Colony and its metro links, and roll toward central Hyderabad. The route is about 34 km and favors quieter neighborhood roads almost all the way, with just a couple of short, busier connectors near major junctions—ride single file and keep lights on.

Terrain is gently rolling: roughly 250 m of climbing and a bit more descending, so you’ll net a slight drop as you approach the city. Surfaces are mostly standard city tarmac, with the odd rough patch.

Aim for an early start to beat heat and traffic, and watch for buses and autos near commercial stretches. You’ll finish in the heart of Hyderabad, where historic lanes meet business districts—perfect excuse to park the bike for an Irani chai or post-ride biryani. If you’ve got extra legs, add a small detour to one of the central landmarks before heading home.
