Quick ride by bicycle from City of London to Bayswater

Set off from the historic heart of London, the City of London, known for its gleaming skyscrapers and ancient landmarks like St. Paul’s Cathedral. Your ride takes you westward, gliding mostly along smooth asphalt on reliable cycleways. You’ll weave past some of London’s iconic sights: maybe glimpse the buzz at Covent Garden or the calm of Hyde Park as you make your way.

It’s a pleasantly urban journey—almost entirely paved, with minimal inclines, so it’s suitable even if you’re not looking for a hill workout. Most of the route follows dedicated cycleways or quiet roads, making for a stress-free ride in the busy city. After covering just under 9 km, you’ll cruise into Bayswater, a charming neighborhood on the edge of Kensington Gardens, famous for its cosmopolitan vibe and elegant terraces. It’s a great spot for a post-ride coffee or a stroll in Hyde Park to finish up!
