Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Curitiba à Almirante Tamandaré

This cycling route takes you from the lively city of Curitiba to the charming town of Almirante Tamandaré, just over 20 km to the north. Starting in Curitiba—a hub known for its innovative urban planning and parks—you’ll head out on mostly quiet roads and cycleways, so it’s a relaxing ride away from heavy traffic.

You’ll pass through some rolling sections, with a pretty decent total ascent of more than 300 meters, giving your legs a pleasant workout. The scenery shifts from Curitiba’s bustling urban vibe to more laid-back, green surroundings as you get closer to Almirante Tamandaré, which is known for its nature spots like Parque Tingui and several historic chapels.

Surfaces are pretty varied: expect a mix of paved, asphalt, and some gravel stretches, so wider tires are a good idea for extra comfort. It’s a great route if you want to leave the city behind for a bit and soak up some countryside atmosphere, ending your ride in a quieter locale known for its connection to the region’s history.
