Paseo rápido en bici de Sovkhoznyy a Shirokaya Rechka

This mellow ride takes you from the small settlement of Sovkhoznyy to the up-and-coming district of Shirokaya Rechka just outside Yekaterinburg. At just under 10 km, it’s the perfect distance for a relaxed hour’s spin or a pleasant commute.

You’ll enjoy mostly quiet roads, a good chunk of cycleway, and hardly any busy traffic—ideal for riders looking to take it easy. The surfaces are a mix, with about half the ride on asphalt or paved roads, and the rest a bit more rustic (watch for a few rough spots, especially after rain).

Sovkhoznyy has its roots as an agricultural community (the name means “state farm”), making for an open, breezy start. Shirokaya Rechka translates to “Wide River,” and while there isn’t a huge river in sight, the area is known for its green spaces and new residential developments—a popular destination for families and nature lovers alike. All in all, a gentle ride with a taste of both town and country vibes!
