By bicycle from Constanța to Palazu Mare

Get ready for a relaxed ride starting in sunny Constanța, the historic port city on the Black Sea. This 11-kilometer route gently winds north through quiet roads and neighborhood streets, perfect for cyclists looking for a calm escape from city bustle. The ride doesn’t get too hilly—there’s just over 40 meters of climbing—so it’s easygoing whether you’re on a road bike or something sturdier.

You’ll start with coastal city vibes surrounded by a blend of modern life and ancient history—Constanța is Romania's oldest continuously inhabited city, after all! The route leads toward Palazu Mare, a peaceful suburb set near Lake Siutghiol, known for its laid-back atmosphere and natural views.

Most of your journey is on smooth asphalt and paved paths, though keep an eye out for some bumpy, unfinished patches and a short stretch of packed earth. It’s a great mix for riders who want mostly comfort with a touch of adventure. Roll into Palazu Mare ready for a well-earned lakeside break or just to take in a quieter side of Constanța’s metropolitan area.
