Quick ride by bicycle from Pasig to Pateros

Here’s a quick ride you can enjoy from Pasig to Pateros—two vibrant spots in Metro Manila with a lot of local flavor! The route is just under 9 km, so it’s completely doable whether you’re commuting or out for a leisurely cruise. Leaving Pasig, known for its blend of busy business districts and cozy neighborhoods, you’ll roll southward toward Pateros, the tiniest municipality in the metro and famous for its balut, the iconic Filipino delicacy.

You’ll spend most of your time on quiet or standard roads, so it’s fairly stress-free compared to busier Manila routes—just watch out for the occasional busy street section. Expect mainly paved surfaces, split between concrete and asphalt, though there are some stretches where the pavement can be patchy.

There’s a gentle overall descent on your way to Pateros, with only a few light climbs—nothing a casual cyclist can’t handle. Once you arrive, reward yourself by sampling some local eats or exploring the riverside vibe. It’s a perfect route for a short city spin with a taste of local culture at both ends!
