Sortie rapide à vélo de Sokol à Mar’ina Roshcha

Hop on your bike for a breezy ride from Sokol to Mar’ina Roshcha—two lively Moscow districts sitting side by side along the city’s northern expanse. Starting in Sokol, famous for its leafy avenues and distinctive pre-revolutionary architecture, you’ll roll east along mostly smooth, paved roads (with a whopping 85% on solid ground, mostly asphalt). The terrain’s almost flat with just minor climbs and dips, so it’s great for all levels of cyclists.

You'll be weaving through a mix of peaceful side streets (over 40% are nice and quiet), access roads, and only the occasional busy stretch. The journey covers about 15 km, making it a comfortable ride whether for a workout or a commute. After about an hour and a half of pedaling at a moderate pace, you’ll land in Mar’ina Roshcha—one of Moscow’s up-and-coming neighborhoods, known for its eclectic vibe, cool eateries, and easy access to the city center.

Don’t forget: There might be a tiny section where the bike path gets a bit unclear, so keep your eyes peeled. Have fun and enjoy urban cycling, Moscow style!
