By bicycle from Mysłowice to Sosnowiec

Hop on your bike in Mysłowice, a city with a deep industrial heritage (and some surprisingly green spaces), and get set for a friendly 18 km ride north to Sosnowiec. The route is mostly smooth sailing—about 80% paved, with gentle up and down slopes that won’t make you break too much of a sweat. You’ll pedal past quiet roads and local paths, weaving through suburban neighborhoods and patches of greenery, catching glimpses of Silesia’s historic charm along the way.

Most of the journey rolls along shaded, peaceful side roads with only the occasional stretch on busier streets. You might spot some old railway lines and industrial relics, reminding you you’re riding through the very heart of Poland’s coal-mining past. The route wraps up in Sosnowiec, a city known for its vibrant parks and lively arts scene. Perfect for grabbing a snack or a cool drink before heading home!
