Cycling day trip from Hanam to Guri-si

This ride starts in Hanam—a city known for its riverside bike paths and lovely parks just east of Seoul. You’ll follow a mostly paved, purpose-built cycleway for most of the 23 km journey, so expect a smooth and relaxed ride. The route takes you northward, with some gentle climbs (about 243 meters of ascent total), zigzagging near the Han River and through peaceful suburban neighborhoods.

As you approach Guri-si, enjoy the shift to a slightly hillier landscape with green spaces scattered along the way. Guri itself is famous for the beautiful Guri Hangang Park and is another popular cycling destination, especially in cherry blossom season. Most of your ride will be on dedicated cycle paths or quiet roads, so it’s perfect for a laid-back spin or a social group ride. Just be sure to check your map occasionally—there might be a short stretch where the path isn’t obvious!

Great for anyone looking to explore a quieter side of the Seoul metropolitan area by bike!
