Quick ride by bicycle from Jankomir to Zagreb

This ride starts in Jankomir, a commercial district in western Zagreb known for its shopping centers and easy highway access. From here, you'll pedal east towards the bustling city center of Zagreb. The route covers just under 14 km and is mostly flat, with a mild ascent of about 71 meters—nothing too threatening, making it a pleasant trip for most cyclists.

The ride is mostly on paved paths (over 90%!), weaving through a mix of quiet roads and designated bike paths, so traffic stress is pretty minimal. You'll pass through a few residential neighborhoods, maybe catch a glimpse of the Sava River, and experience Zagreb's shift from the calmer outskirts into the vibrant city core.

Once you reach central Zagreb, you’ll be rewarded with beautiful architecture, lively cafés, and parks perfect for a post-ride break. Fun fact: Zagreb’s center is famous for its Austro-Hungarian buildings—don’t forget to check out Ban Jelačić Square when you get there! Perfect for commuters or anyone wanting a smooth, scenic ride into the heart of Croatia’s capital.
