Quick ride by bicycle from Finlyandskiy to Krasnogvargeisky

Set off from Finlyandskiy, a district famous for its bustling train station and historic ties to old St. Petersburg. This 13.3 km cycling route winds eastward, making the most of the city’s quieter side streets and access roads—so you can truly cruise without jostling with much traffic.

The surface is mostly smooth asphalt, perfect for a relaxed pedal, with just a sprinkling of gravelly bits to keep things interesting. You’ll barely notice the gentle ascent and descent (nothing too steep to interrupt your flow). Along the way, you’ll skirt some leafy parks and get a feel for local neighborhoods before finishing in Krasnogvardeysky.

Krasnogvardeysky is a spacious area known for its wide avenues and Soviet-era architecture—a cool spot to rest up, grab a snack, or even just snap a few photos of urban St. Petersburg life. All in all: an easy ride, away from the city’s chaos, and ideal for anyone wanting a taste of local scenery on a bike.
