À vélo de Dorogomilovo à Presnenskiy

This ride takes you from Dorogomilovo, a bustling district on the western side of Moscow known for its mix of Stalinist architecture and vibrant city life, to Presnenskiy, home to some of the city’s coolest modern landmarks—including the Moscow City skyscrapers and the historic Patriarch’s Ponds area.

At just over 5 km, it’s a breezy trip—perfect for the everyday commute or a weekend urban adventure. You’ll mostly be gliding along paved surfaces, with the occasional patch of paving stones giving it some extra charm. The route is a blend of access roads and city streets; you’ll tackle a few busy sections, but quieter roads make up about 15% of your journey, so there are moments to just cruise and soak it all in.

There’s a little bit of up and down, but nothing too punishing—think of it as a gentle city rollercoaster. Once you reach Presnenskiy, you’ll find yourself near some of Moscow’s best cafes, parks, and cultural hotspots. Enjoy the ride!
