Quick ride by bicycle from Krakow to Sidzina

This pleasant ride takes you from the lively center of Krakow, a city brimming with history and culture, down to the quieter, picturesque village of Sidzina. Over roughly 12 kilometers, you’ll follow mostly paved and asphalt roads, with a nice mix of quiet side streets and scenic paths—perfect if you prefer to avoid busy traffic.

The last stretch is especially peaceful, with beautiful countryside views as you approach Sidzina—a small, welcoming place where you can catch your breath before heading back.

Most of your ride is on smooth surfaces, though you’ll get a little variety with short sections of cobblestone and paving stones—just enough to keep things interesting!
