Paseo rápido en bici de Portland a Milwaukie

This ride takes you from the heart of downtown Portland down to the riverside city of Milwaukie—perfect if you’re looking for a relaxed and scenic pedal south of the city. The route is about 12 km, mostly flat with just enough gentle ups and downs (about 132 meters ascent, 134 meters descent) to wake up your legs, but nothing too wild.

You’ll be on smooth pavement almost all of the way, and over half the ride follows dedicated cycleways, so it’s great for a chill cruise. Expect tree-lined stretches and the occasional stretch through quiet neighborhoods. You’ll get some nice views of the Willamette River, and maybe spot a few eagles if you’re lucky.

Portland is known for its bike-friendliness and craft coffee shops, so grab a cup before you head out. Milwaukie, named after Milwaukee, Wisconsin (but with its own quirky charm), has a cute downtown and the beautiful waterfront Mill Park to relax in at your journey’s end. Perfect for a Saturday spin!
