Sortie rapide à vélo de Samobor à Rude

Samobor to Rude Cycling Route

Kick off your ride in the charming historic town of Samobor, famously known for its kremšnita (a delicious custard pastry) and picturesque old town vibe. From here, you'll wind your way into the rolling hills west of Zagreb, enjoying mostly quiet roads—perfect for soaking in nature without much traffic.

The route is about 18.4 km and, while most of the path is smoothly paved (asphalt and all), be ready for a good bit of climbing—almost 800 meters in elevation! Bring your climbing legs because you’ll earn some spectacular views over the lush countryside. The landscape is dotted with forests and vineyards, and you might spot a few traditional wooden houses along the way.

You’ll end up in Rude, a small village famous for its mining history and the local specialty, rudarska greblica (a savory pie). It’s a rewarding stop after your effort—definitely grab a bite if you can!

This ride is ideal for anyone who likes a hilly challenge and peaceful scenery close to Zagreb. Don’t forget your camera!
