Quick ride by bicycle from Mytishchi to Vatutine

If you’re up for a relaxed suburban ride, the route from Mytishchi to Vatutine makes for a pleasant journey. Mytishchi, just northeast of Moscow, is known for its beautiful parks and the iconic aqueduct from the time of Catherine the Great. From there, you’ll roll about 6.9 km southwest towards Vatutine, an area that feels more residential and laid-back.

The ride itself is easy-going—mostly on quiet roads and paved surfaces, so you won’t have to worry much about rough patches. You’ll barely feel the gentle ascent and descent along the way (it’s pretty flat overall). While the path includes some stretches missing perfect pavement, you’ll still find plenty of smooth asphalt to glide on. It’s a great little escape if you want to soak up some local character, pass through leafy neighborhoods, and enjoy a mostly traffic-free ride. Perfect for a quick afternoon trip or a casual weekend spin!
