Paseo rápido en bici de Shchyolkovo a Koroliov

This route takes you on a gentle ride from Shchyolkovo to Korolyov, just northeast of Moscow. Starting in Shchyolkovo, a busy commuter town known for its peaceful parks and easy-going vibe, you'll head southwest along mostly quiet roads—perfect for cyclists looking for a relaxing journey with minimal traffic.

The ride is just under 13 km and is reasonably flat, with only a bit of climbing (about 43 meters up, 29 down). Surfaces are mixed, but about a third of the ride is on nice, smooth asphalt or paved roads. Expect a few sections where the exact surface is hard to predict, so be ready for some variety under your tires!

As you roll into Korolyov, you’ll finish in a city famed as the cradle of Russia’s space industry—home to the Mission Control Center and a rich history of cosmonautics. It’s a great spot to relax and soak in some local science heritage before heading back or exploring further. Happy pedaling!
