Sortie rapide à vélo de Berlin-Gropiusstadt à Berlin-Buckow

Here’s a quick and easy ride from Gropiusstadt to Buckow—perfect if you’ve got half an hour and want to explore Berlin’s southern neighborhoods. This 2.3 km route keeps things mostly flat, with only gentle ups and downs (nothing your legs can’t handle). You’ll roll out of Gropiusstadt, a district famous for its vast post-war housing estate designed by Bauhaus legend Walter Gropius. The streets here are surprisingly calm, so it’s a stress-free start.

Most of your journey will be on quiet roads, with a mix of smooth asphalt and some stretches of paving stones and concrete. There are also sections along bike paths or peaceful back routes, making it friendly for less experienced cyclists. As you reach Buckow, you’ll pass by some leafy areas and garden plots – a nice contrast to Gropiusstadt’s urban vibe. Buckow itself feels a bit more village-like, even though it’s well within city limits. If you fancy a treat, there are plenty of small cafés and bakeries waiting for you at the end.

Enjoy the gentle ride, and take in Berlin’s local character along the way!
