Sortie rapide à vélo de Modřany à Vysehrad

This pleasant cycling route takes you from Modřany, a relaxed southern district of Prague known for its parks and riverside paths, all the way to historic Vyšehrad. It’s about 9.5 km, mostly on paved surfaces (yay for smooth rides!), with gentle ups and downs—nothing too intimidating.

You’ll start by cruising along the Vltava River, sticking mostly to dedicated cycleways and quiet roads, making this a chill ride perfect for enjoying scenic city views. As you pedal northwards, you’ll pass through leafy areas and catch glimpses of classic Prague architecture, before gently ascending toward Vyšehrad.

Vyšehrad is a real gem—an ancient fortified area perched above the river, packed with legends, gardens, and some of the best skyline views in the city. Lock up your bike and explore the gothic church, old ramparts, and rolling lawns. All in all, this ride is a great mix of nature and history, just right for a leisurely morning or afternoon spin.
