Sortie rapide à vélo de Villeurbanne à Bron

This ride takes you from the lively heart of Villeurbanne to the more laid-back, green atmosphere of Bron—perfect for a chill cycling session! Starting in Villeurbanne, a bustling suburb just east of Lyon (famous for its student vibe and the iconic Gratte-Ciel towers), you’ll glide mostly on quiet roads and dedicated cycleways. The route is around 6.3 km, mostly flat with just a gentle uphill (34 meters of ascent, nothing too taxing), cruising through urban neighborhoods and a few leafy stretches.

You'll spend most of your time on well-paved surfaces, with frequent cycle lanes, so it's a friendly trip whether you’re a daily commuter or a weekend explorer. Bron, at the finish, is known for its parks and open spaces—Parc de Parilly is a local favorite if you feel like stretching your legs post-ride. All in all, it’s a pleasant spin between two dynamic suburbs, ideal for getting a taste of greater Lyon on two wheels!
