Quick ride by bicycle from Gronowo Górne to Elblag

This short ride takes you from Gronowo Górne, a peaceful village just outside of Elbląg, straight into the heart of the city. At just over 5 km, it’s a leisurely route with gentle ups and downs—don’t worry, you’ll only climb about 9 meters and descend about 21 meters, so it’s a breeze for any cyclist.

The journey starts among Gronowo Górne’s calm residential streets and country roads, then moves onto quiet roads and a dedicated cycleway (almost a quarter of your route), making for a pleasant, low-stress ride. There are stretches of smooth asphalt and charming paving stones, but keep an eye out for some sections where the surface is less defined—typical in these parts, but nothing a city or trekking bike can’t handle.

As you coast into Elbląg, you’ll notice its blend of modern and Hanseatic architecture. Elbląg’s Old Town reflects its rich history as one of the oldest cities in northern Poland. Cafés, historic churches, and riverside paths await—perfect for a post-ride stroll or snack. Enjoy the ride!
