Quick ride by bicycle from Gliwice to Pyskowice

Starting in the vibrant city of Gliwice, known for its charming old town and impressive radio tower (one of the tallest wooden structures in the world!), this cycle route takes you north to the smaller town of Pyskowice. Covering just under 20 km, the ride is mostly gentle with a modest ascent of about 73 meters—just enough to keep things interesting without breaking a sweat.

You’ll pedal along a lovely mix of quiet roads and cycleways, making up almost 70% of the journey, which means this route is ideal if you’re looking for a peaceful ride away from heavy traffic. Expect a variety of surfaces—mainly paved and asphalt, but you’ll pass some stretches of paving stones and a little gravel too. Bring your hybrid or touring bike for the smoothest experience.

Pyskowice is a cozy town north of Gliwice, perfect for a relaxing coffee stop or some local sightseeing, especially if you enjoy the calm vibe of Upper Silesian small towns. Whether you’re a local commuter or just exploring new corners of the region, this is a fun, accessible ride that gives you a taste of both urban and rural Silesia.
