Excursion à vélo d’une journée de São Paulo à São Caetano do Sul

This scenic cycling route takes you from the vibrant heart of São Paulo to the welcoming city of São Caetano do Sul, over about 21 km. You’ll start in the bustling metropolis of São Paulo—Brazil’s largest city, famous for its skyscrapers, culture, and endless energy. The ride heads southeast, weaving through quieter residential neighborhoods and shady streets, with most of the journey on peaceful roads and well-maintained asphalt.

The route isn’t totally flat—you’ll face a few climbs, especially as you leave central São Paulo, but the challenge is rewarded with smooth descents and interesting city views. São Caetano do Sul welcomes you with a more relaxed pace and plenty of green spaces. Known for its high quality of life and community feel, it’s a pleasant contrast to urban São Paulo.

Most of the ride is on paved or asphalt roads, with just a tiny sprinkle of cobblestone and concrete. Grab a snack at one of the many bakeries in São Caetano before hopping back—or just enjoy a well-earned rest in the city’s lovely parks!
