Cycling day trip from Fernando de la Mora to Asunción

This cycling route takes you from Fernando de la Mora, a lively suburb known for its relaxed vibe and local markets, straight into the historic heart of Asunción, Paraguay’s eclectic capital. Covering a bit over 25 kilometers, you’ll mostly be cruising on smooth, paved surfaces, with plenty of quiet roads and dedicated cycleways—so you can really enjoy the ride without having to dodge too much traffic.

You’ll start out in suburban streets surrounded by everyday city life, making your way north-west toward the Paraguay River. Along the journey, expect a gentle mix of ups and downs, but nothing too challenging—just enough to make you feel like you’ve earned that empanada at the end.

Arriving in Asunción, you’ll roll into a city famous for its colonial architecture, riverside views, and friendly locals. It’s the perfect spot to treat yourself to some tereré (local iced herbal tea) before exploring Independence Plaza or the Costanera boardwalk. A great ride for commuters and casual explorers alike!
