Excursión ciclista de un día de São Caetano do Sul a Mauá

This ride takes you from São Caetano do Sul, a bustling city just southeast of São Paulo known for its high quality of life, over to Mauá, a city often called the “Gateway to the ABC Region” thanks to its industrial roots and unique geography.

The route is just under 26 km and packs in just under 400 meters of both climbing and descent—it’ll keep your legs honest, but nothing too wild! You’ll enjoy mostly quiet roads (about two-thirds of your trip), with a decent stretch on cycleways, so it’s a relaxed journey for the most part. The surface is mostly paved or asphalt, though there are a few sections where the exact surface isn’t clear, so watch for any surprises.

You’ll roll through some of the industrial backbone of Greater São Paulo, crossing neighborhoods brimming with local life before landing in Mauá, known for its rich Italian heritage and vibrant local markets. A great ride for anyone wanting to get a real feel for the São Paulo metropolitan area beyond the obvious.
