Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Hanam à Séoul

Roll out from Hanam and hop onto the Hangang bike path, skirting Misari Regatta Park—built for the 1988 Olympic rowing events—then cruise west along the river. It’s about 40 km with gentle ups from bridge ramps (roughly 430 m total), and the riding is mostly smooth asphalt and concrete. Around three quarters of the way is on dedicated cycleways, with just a few links on quiet streets and hardly any busy-road time.

You’ll pass Gwangnaru and broad riverside parks with skyline views toward Jamsil and Lotte World Tower. There are plenty of kiosks, water taps, and convenience stores along the path, plus shaded spots for breaks. As you near the city center, follow the Jungnangcheon or Cheonggyecheon greenway to roll into downtown, finishing near Seoul City Hall—steps from Deoksugung Palace and the Cheonggyecheon stream.

Tip: weekends can be crowded on the river paths, so ring early and keep right. Great ride for a relaxed pace or a steady spin into the heart of Seoul.
