À vélo de Anvers à Zwijndrecht

This route takes you from the lively heart of Antwerp to the quieter town of Zwijndrecht, just across the Scheldt. You’ll start amid Antwerp’s beautiful historic architecture—keep an eye out for the iconic Cathedral of Our Lady as you roll through the city center. Most of your ride is on smooth, paved cycleways (perfect for all weather!), with a few stretches of charming paving stones to keep things interesting.

Crossing the river is a highlight—many cyclists opt for the St. Anna Tunnel, a quirky 1930s pedestrian and bike tunnel with gorgeous wooden escalators! The scenery relaxes as you approach Zwijndrecht, a peaceful spot that’s great for a coffee break before you head back.

At just under 7 km, this route is perfect for a casual cruise or a quick commute. There’s only gentle elevation, so it’s friendly for all levels. Enjoy!
