En bici de Avtovo a Kupchino

This leisurely route takes you from Avtovo to Kupchino—two lively districts in St. Petersburg’s south end. Starting at Avtovo, famous for its ornate metro station (worth a quick look even if you’re not catching a train!), you’ll pedal along mostly paved roads. The route covers just under 9.5 km, making it an easy ride for most cyclists.

You'll cruise mostly along access and quiet roads, so expect a relaxed vibe rather than city-center chaos. There’s a minimal amount of unpaved surfaces—just a touch of gravel and concrete to keep things interesting, but nothing your city bike can’t handle. Look out for local parks and classic Soviet architecture along the way.

You’ll end up in Kupchino, one of St. Petersburg’s largest residential areas. Fun fact: Kupchino has a bit of a cult status among locals thanks to its unique 'city-within-a-city' atmosphere and even gets referenced in Russian pop culture. If you’re feeling peckish after your ride, there are plenty of cozy cafes around. Enjoy exploring this slice of the real St. Petersburg!
