By bicycle from Stari Grad to Belgrade

Roll out from Stari Grad, Belgrade’s historic core (think Knez Mihailova and Kalemegdan Fortress), and ease your way toward the rivers. You’ll spend most of this ~9 km spin on marked cycleways and quiet back streets, with just a very short hop on a busier road—stay alert at junctions and you’re golden.

The terrain is friendly city riding: fully paved, mostly smooth asphalt with a couple of brief paving‑stone patches, and gentle ups and downs (about 75 m of climbing overall). If you fancy views, dip by the riverside promenades for a look at the Sava–Danube confluence—Belgrade’s defining landscape.

Threading south through calm neighborhoods, you’ll roll into central Belgrade where cafés, galleries, and museums are never far away. Park up for an espresso or grab a burek and watch the city flow past—this route is more about savoring the vibe than grinding out watts.

Tips:

• Best at off-peak times; traffic is light on this route but crossings can be busy.
• Lights and a bell help in mixed-use sections.
• Photo stop: Kalemegdan walls and the rivers are hard to beat.
