Quick ride by bicycle from Mytishchi to Yaroslavskiy

Hop on your bike in Mytishchi, a lively suburb just north of Moscow that’s well-known for its leafy parks and as a key hub in the Yaroslavl railway direction. This short route takes you about 6 km south to the neighborhood of Yaroslavskiy, mostly following quiet roads, so you can expect a fairly relaxed ride.

You'll experience a gentle descent overall, making it a tad easier on the legs. The majority of the way is paved or asphalt, though there’s the occasional patch where the surface might be a bit mixed or unpaved, so keep an eye out and be ready for some variety under your tires.

Mytishchi is famous for its ice hockey traditions and industrial heritage, while Yaroslavskiy is a residential district that borders Losiny Ostrov National Park—so if you’re up for a nature detour at the end, you’ve got options! Perfect for an easy morning loop or a chill commute.
