Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Hostavice à Braník

Hop on your bike for a cool cross-town ride from Hostavice to Braník! Starting in the northeast suburb of Hostavice—a peaceful residential spot loved for its parks and laid-back vibe—you’ll pedal through about 20 kilometers of mostly paved, cyclist-friendly roads (with a nice mix of dedicated cycleways and quiet streets). Expect just a bit of gentle uphill (about 130 meters overall), but you’ll enjoy a longer, easy descent on your way to the south.

Much of the route leads you through green Prague neighborhoods and along the city’s cycle paths, so the ride feels relaxed and mostly away from heavy traffic. You’ll pass through some charming local zones, cross the Vltava River, and finish in Braník, a favorite Prague district perfect for a post-ride drink or snack by the riverside. Fun fact: Braník was once famous for its brewery, and it’s still popular with locals for its laid-back atmosphere and vibrant riverfront. This ride is a great slice across Prague—urban, but with heaps of greenery and local flavor!
