Sortie rapide à vélo de Kupchino à Shushary

This cycling route takes you from Kupchino, a lively neighborhood in southern St. Petersburg known for its strong community vibes, down to Shushary, an area that’s growing fast and blends city life with quieter surroundings. It’s just over 9 km, so it’s a nice ride if you want something manageable but not too short.

You’ll mostly be riding on paved and asphalt surfaces—about 85%—so your wheels will thank you.

The path winds along access and quiet roads for the most part, making for a relaxed spin without much traffic.

Elevation-wise, it’s easy-going, with a gentle ascent and descent—so you won’t be sweating it out on any steep hills. Kupchino has a metro station and is famous for its park areas, while Shushary is popular among commuters and is quietly developing its own charm. All in all, it’s a pleasant, accessible route for cyclists of any skill level.
