Quick ride by bicycle from Zürich (Kreis 11) / Oerlikon to Zürich (Kreis 10)

Ready for a quick city ride? Start out in Oerlikon, Zürich's buzzy business and event hub—home to the Hallenstadion and the ever-popular Oerliker Park. Your route to Zürich's Kreis 10 district covers just under 4.4 km, making it perfect for a weekday commute or a short weekend spin.

You'll mostly be on quiet roads and tracks (about three-quarters of the way is smooth asphalt and paved), but expect a little adventure with some gravel stretches too—nothing too rough, just enough to keep things interesting! There's a gentle climb as you make your way toward the Wipkingen or Höngg quarters, topping out around 552 meters, but you get a smooth descent to balance things out.

End your ride in Kreis 10, a trendy, green district known for its riverside parks (hello, Limmat!) and laid-back vibe. Perfect spot to grab a coffee or unwind by the water. Enjoy the city views and the easy mix of urban energy and green escapes!
