Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Riga à Piņķi

Hop on your bike in the heart of Riga and set out for the charming village of Piņķi—just under 26 km away! This route is mostly on well-paved surfaces, with over half dedicated to cycleways, which means a comfortable, safe ride for most of the journey. You'll leave the bustle of Riga—Latvia’s vibrant capital with its stunning Art Nouveau architecture and buzzing markets—heading west through green suburbs and quiet roads.

Expect gentle ups and downs, but nothing too steep—the highest point is just about 21 meters above sea level. As you get closer to Piņķi, you’ll enjoy a mix of smooth asphalt and the occasional bit of gravel or cobblestone, perfect for adding a touch of rural charm.

Piņķi is known for its beautiful parks and relaxed vibe, making it a great spot to unwind after your ride. If you’re curious, it also hosts the International School of Latvia and is growing quickly as a popular residential area. Bring snacks, soak in the scenery, and enjoy a ride that’s as refreshing as it is easygoing!
