Excursión ciclista de un día de Seúl a Gwangmyeong

Ready for a ride from the heart of Seoul to Gwangmyeong? This 36 km journey is mostly along smooth asphalt and paved cycleways, taking about 10 hours at a relaxed sightseeing pace (or much less if you’re in it for speed and coffee stops!). You'll leave behind Seoul’s iconic skyline, pedaling through city vibrance and then weaving out toward quieter neighborhoods.

The route climbs around 390 meters, so get ready for a few rolling hills, but nothing too intimidating. Most of the journey rides on well-kept bike paths, perfect for soaking in the Han River views while avoiding the traffic hustle.

Gwangmyeong is famous for its sparkling cave—a former mine turned into a surprising underground theme park—and a local vibe that’s a bit more laid-back compared to Seoul. Whether you’re out to explore or simply enjoy the Korean cycling culture, this trip packs both city excitement and suburban chill. Don’t forget your camera—you’ll want to capture those distinct changes in scenery!
