Quick ride by bicycle from Clerkenwell to Harringay

Set off from the creative buzz of Clerkenwell, famous for its design studios and historic pubs. You’ll start by weaving through quiet backroads—a chill way to slip north past the crowds and chaos of central London. The route keeps things relaxed, sticking mostly to peaceful streets and a decent stretch of cycleway, perfect if you’re not in the mood to battle traffic.

As you cross through leafy neighborhoods like Finsbury Park, there’s a steady but friendly mix of gentle climbs and breezy descents, nothing too punishing—just enough to get your legs moving. Most of the way is smoothly paved or asphalt, though you’ll hit the occasional stretch that’s less defined, so keep an eye out there.

You’ll finish up in Harringay, a lively corner of North London known for its eclectic high street and tempting Turkish restaurants—ideal for a post-ride bite. In total, you’re looking at just under 13 km; enough for a solid spin without turning it into a marathon. Enjoy the ride!
