Sortie rapide à vélo de Quiapo à Makati City

Looking for an urban cycling adventure with some city vibes? This 19 km ride takes you from the bustling heart of Quiapo, one of Manila’s oldest and liveliest districts—famous for the Minor Basilica of the Black Nazarene and its colorful street scenes—all the way to the sleek towers and bustling business centers of Makati City.

The route is mostly on paved roads (a mix of concrete and asphalt), and while you’ll be sharing space with traffic here and there, about 80% of the journey follows quieter backstreets, so you’ll get a more relaxed ride. You’ll face a bit of a climb in the middle, but nothing too steep—the route’s max elevation is just over 35 meters.

Expect a lively ride through a mix of old Manila charm and modern cityscape. Once you arrive in Makati, reward yourself with great coffee shops, cool parks, or a bit of window shopping at Greenbelt. Don’t forget your water and camera for the street sights along the way!
