Quick ride by bicycle from Harringay to Barnsbury

This is a steady city ride that starts in lively Harringay, a North London neighborhood known for its bustling Green Lanes food scene and diverse community. You’ll wind your way south for just over 10 km to reach Barnsbury, an elegant corner of Islington with leafy Victorian terraces and quiet streets.

The route is mostly on quiet roads (a chill 71%) with a decent stretch of proper cycleways (22%), so you should have a pleasant ride, and only a tiny bit (1%) on busy roads. The surface is mostly paved or asphalt, so no need for a mountain bike here. You’ll get a bit of a workout with around 72 meters of ascent, but nothing too intense, maxing out under 66 meters elevation.

Barnsbury at the finish is perfect for grabbing a coffee or a picnic in one of the local garden squares—just a relaxed urban spin with a bit of north-to-central London flavor!
