Excursión ciclista de un día de Yakarta a Bekasi

Ready for a ride from the bustling city vibes of Jakarta to the growing metropolis of Bekasi? This roughly 33.5 km cycling route is a smooth cruise, mostly on paved and asphalt roads with just a hint of concrete thrown in. With gentle climbs (the biggest ascent is barely over 60 meters), it’s not too tough on the legs—perfect for a casual day out.

You’ll roll through quieter backroads (over half the way!) and several relaxed neighborhoods, dodging the city’s hectic main streets. Jakarta is famous for its colonial landmarks, skyscrapers, and vibrant street life, while Bekasi, one of Greater Jakarta’s busiest suburbs, is known for its rapid development and residential charm.

Expect up-close looks at local life, some shaded lanes, and the occasional food stall—ideal for a quick snack break. With low elevation changes and a decent mix of concrete and asphalt, this ride is a great escape from traffic-heavy routes without straying too far from urban amenities. Don’t forget your sunblock and water—metro cycling has its own adventures!
