Quick ride by bicycle from Mölndal to Gothenburg

This ride takes you from Mölndal, a cozy southern suburb with roots going back to the Middle Ages, all the way into the heart of bustling Gothenburg. It’s a relaxed 8.4 km pedal—perfect for commuters or anyone who just wants to see a slice of Western Sweden from the saddle.

You’ll spend most of your time on smooth, paved paths and cycleways, gliding past leafy parks, modern residential areas, and the occasional picturesque stream. The route is pretty flat, too, with just a gentle ascent and descent, so it won’t leave your legs burning. Expect a mix of cycling paths (about two-thirds of the route) and some quiet roads, which means there’s very little traffic to worry about.

Once you reach Gothenburg, you’ll roll right into Sweden’s second-largest city, famous for its canals, vibrant cultural scene, and waterside cafes. If you fancy a break, the city center is packed with great coffee shops and bakeries—perfect for a post-ride fika!
