Quick ride by bicycle from Korolev to Shchelkovo

Ready for a pleasant ride? Let's kick things off in Korolev, a city known for its rich space exploration history—it's the cradle of Russian cosmonautics. Your journey of about 13 kilometers will take you through mostly quiet roads, with 70% of your route falling in the low-traffic category. Though some of the surfaces might be a bit rough (hey, it's 66% missing surface), you'll still enjoy a decent mix of asphalt, with a little bit of paved roads adding variety to your ride.

As you pedal away, expect a gentle ascent of roughly 31 meters and a slightly longer descent of 48 meters, helping to keep things dynamic. The route’s highest point is about 170 meters in elevation, so you get a mini leg workout without extreme uphill challenges.

Your destination is Shchelkovo, a charming town with beautiful green spaces—perfect for unwinding after a good ride. Grab a post-ride treat and explore local spots if you have time. This ride is perfect for those looking to mix a bit of history, a dash of exercise, and plenty of chill time in the great outdoors. Happy cycling! 🚴‍♂️
