Paseo rápido en bici de Falcon Heights a Saint Paul

Roll out from Falcon Heights by the U of M’s St. Paul campus and the Minnesota State Fairgrounds, then hop on the Como Avenue bikeway toward Como Park. From there, angle southeast on a mix of protected paths and quiet streets, threading your way toward the Minnesota State Capitol. It’s almost entirely paved and feels smooth and steady, with a gentle net descent as you drop into Saint Paul.

If you’ve got time, pause at Como Park & Conservatory, then glide past the Capitol dome and link into the Capital City Bikeway to reach downtown/Lowertown. The ride is about 14.5 km with modest rolling elevation—nothing too spicy.

Fun facts: Falcon Heights punches above its weight as home to the Great Minnesota Get-Together (the State Fair). Saint Paul, Minnesota’s capital, is known for its river bluffs, grand Summit Avenue mansions, CHS Field and Mears Park in Lowertown, and an increasingly connected bike network.
