By bicycle from Bucharest to Bucharest

This short cycling route takes you right through the heart of Bucharest, Romania’s buzzing capital city. Covering just under 2 kilometers, it’s perfect for a quick city ride—great if you want to get a feel for local life or just enjoy a break from the usual traffic jams.

You’ll mostly cruise along quiet roads and dedicated cycleways (almost three-quarters of the route!), with just a tiny stretch on busier streets. The surface is smooth and friendly for all bikes—mainly asphalt with a touch of classic paving stones to give you that old European vibe.

Starting near the city center, you’ll pass landmarks, bustling neighborhoods, and leafy boulevards, winding your way toward the destination—still within central Bucharest. There’s barely any climbing, so it’s gentle on the legs and ideal for a relaxed spin. Take your time, soak in the urban atmosphere, and maybe stop to grab a coffee along the way—this quick ride is more about enjoying the city than getting a workout!
