Quick ride by bicycle from Novorossiysk to Myskhako

This scenic cycling route takes you from the bustling port city of Novorossiysk down to the cozy seaside village of Myskhako. You'll cover just over 11 km on mostly quiet roads, with a few climbs and descents to keep things interesting (expect a total ascent of around 224 meters). The majority of the way you'll glide along peaceful backroads, soaking in views of rolling hills, vineyards, and glimpses of the Black Sea.

Novorossiysk, your starting point, is one of Russia’s major Black Sea ports with a rich maritime history—make sure to check out the city’s waterfront or military memorials if you’ve got time. By the time you roll into Myskhako, you’re not just arriving at a beautiful spot on the coast; this little town is famous for its local wine production and relaxed seaside vibe. Perfect for chilling out after your ride!

Just a heads-up: surfaces are mostly unmarked, with only a small portion being asphalt, so a hybrid or gravel bike is a smart choice. Enjoy the ride and the coastal scenery!
