Excursión ciclista de un día de Câmpina a Ploieşti

Ready for a scenic ride from Câmpina to Ploieşti? This 55 km journey rolls mostly downhill, so you'll have a mix of climbs and rewarding descents—perfect for those who like a bit of a challenge without going full mountain goat.

You'll start in Câmpina, a charming town known for its Belle Époque architecture and the Nicolae Grigorescu memorial museum. The route takes you through half quiet country roads and some unpaved stretches, so make sure your bike can handle a bit of gravel and dirt (about 37% of the ride). Asphalt sections are smooth, but be ready to shift onto tracks and even some lively village paths.

As you roll into Ploieşti, the “city of oil,” you’ll find a bustling urban center with a rich industrial heritage and plenty of places to grab a post-ride snack. With a total climb of about 650 meters and even more descent, it's a rewarding mix for any cyclist who likes a taste of rural Romania before finishing in a vibrant city. Don’t forget your camera—there’s plenty to see along the way!
