Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Mauá à Ferraz de Vasconcelos

Ready for a scenic ride across Greater São Paulo? Start your journey in Mauá, a lively industrial city known for its strong railway and manufacturing history. The 36 km route to Ferraz de Vasconcelos takes you mostly along quiet roads—so it’s a pleasant ride with minimal traffic. You’ll tackle some steady climbs along the way (with nearly 900 meters of ascent and descent), so be ready for a bit of a workout and some sweeping views from higher up.

Surfaces on this route are a mix, so while you’ll hit lots of paved and asphalt sections, a chunk of the path is missing surface data. That means it’s best to bring a bike that can handle the occasional surprise. As you roll into Ferraz de Vasconcelos, a culturally rich suburb with roots in Japanese immigration, take some time to stretch your legs in one of its many green parks.

Pack water, snacks, and maybe an extra tube—just in case!
