Excursión ciclista de un día de Depok a Yakarta

Set off from Depok, a bustling satellite city just south of Jakarta, known both for its mellow university-town vibes and chaotic commuter traffic. The 35.6 km ride to central Jakarta is mostly paved, weaving through a mix of quiet backstreets (over half the journey!) and some living streets, keeping things relaxed most of the way.

You’ll start out in relatively green suburbs, with only gentle climbs—the highest you’ll get is just under 95 meters. The route gradually descends as you head north towards Jakarta, so it’ll feel easier the closer you get. You’ll mostly be rolling on asphalt, though keep an eye out for patches of concrete and some missing paving here and there.

Jakarta greets you with its iconic skyline, teeming markets, and the vibrant energy only a megacity this size can offer. It’s the heart of Indonesia—culturally, economically, and politically. Whether you’re cruising in for work or play, this ride offers a slice of life from the quieter south to the pulsing core of the capital. Perfect for those wanting a taste of urban cycling with minimum fuss.
