Cycling day trip from Rome to La Massimina-Casal Lumbroso

Ready to explore the Eternal City and its green outskirts? This relaxed route starts in the heart of Rome, where ancient treasures and lively piazzas set the vibe. You’ll pedal past storied monuments, then gradually swap city bustle for quieter, leafy neighborhoods as you head west.

Most of your ride rolls over smooth asphalt and paved paths, with just a hint of adventure where the surface is less defined. Along the way, you’ll climb a bit—enough to earn sweeping city views—but nothing too daunting. Almost half the route keeps you on quiet roads and dedicated cycleways, making for a chilled-out journey.

Your endpoint, La Massimina-Casal Lumbroso, is a tranquil zone on Rome’s outskirts, known for its parks and local charm. It’s a great spot to escape the city’s pace and take a breather among the pines. Altogether, it’s about 38 km—just enough for an energizing spin, blending Roman history and suburban serenity.
