Excursión ciclista de un día de Yakhroma a Dubná

This ride takes you from Yakhroma, a small town north of Moscow known for its ski slopes and cozy riverside vibes, up to Dubna, a science city famous for its Joint Institute for Nuclear Research. You’ll be covering just over 63 kilometers, so set aside half a day—maybe more if you’re into photo breaks!

Almost all of this route will have you away from main roads: expect about 86% on cycleways and mostly unpaved terrain, including long stretches of loose gravel and earth. Bring a gravel or mountain bike, and be ready for a little adventure! Elevation changes are gentle, with less than 100 meters up and about the same down, so it's a great, manageable challenge if you’ve already done a few shorter rides.

You'll weave through forests and villages along the Dubna River, winding towards Dubna’s iconic Volga canal. The ride is tranquil, scenic, and perfect if you want to avoid traffic. Treat yourself to a snack at the finish—a city that’s a fascinating blend of science and nature.
