Paseo rápido en bici de Bucarest a Chiajna

If you’re up for an enjoyable ride from the heart of Bucharest out to the growing suburb of Chiajna, this roughly 16.5 km route is a great pick. Starting in bustling Bucharest—with its wide boulevards, eclectic mix of old and new architecture, and lively city vibes—you’ll quickly find yourself escaping the city’s commotion.

The route features a pleasant mix of cycleways and quieter roads, with about 86% on smooth pavement or asphalt. You’ll encounter a bit of unpaved terrain (nothing too wild), so hybrid or sturdy road tires are a good idea. The journey is mostly flat, making it accessible for most riders, with just a gentle ascent and descent as you cross out of Bucharest’s urban core.

Chiajna, your final stop, has developed rapidly in recent years and is known for its modern neighborhoods and proximity to Lake Dâmbovița. There’s a relaxed suburban atmosphere waiting for you, plus some nice spots to unwind after your ride. So, whether you’re commuting, training, or just exploring, this easygoing ride nicely blends city life and suburban calm.
