Paseo rápido en bici de Chillum a Washington

If you’re looking for a relaxed ride from the neighborhood vibes of Chillum to the heart of Washington D.C., this one’s for you! The route covers around 16.5 km, mostly on paved surfaces—think smooth asphalt and a solid network of cycleways (over 60% of the time you’ll have your own lane). You’ll navigate some gentle climbs (total ascent is about 137 meters), but with more downhill sections toward D.C., so you can really cruise as you get closer to the city.

Chillum is a lively suburban area sitting just outside the D.C. border, known for its diverse community. From here, you’ll pedal through a mix of quiet roads and dedicated bike paths, skirting green spaces and local neighborhoods. There are just a few patches (7%) where the surface quality might be ambiguous—nothing too wild, just keep an eye out.

As you reach downtown Washington D.C., you’ll roll past famous sights and feel the city energy build. This route is perfect for commuters or anyone who wants to bridge the suburbs and the city center on two wheels!
