Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Minsk à Syenitsa

Ready for a scenic ride out of the city? This cycling route takes you from the lively center of Minsk, Belarus’s capital, all the way down south to the quiet village of Syenitsa—about 23 km of steady pedaling. As you leave Minsk, the blend of cityscape and parks gives way to more peaceful roads and stretches of countryside.

Most of your ride will be on paved and asphalt surfaces, with just a hint of gravel and paving stones to keep things interesting. The terrain is gently rolling, so expect a few minor climbs and descents—nothing too dramatic. You’ll weave through quiet roads and some dedicated cycleways, passing through residential areas and open fields as you head out of the city.

Minsk’s rich history and wide boulevards at your starting point offer a striking contrast to Syenitsa’s laidback village vibe at the end, where you can soak in the peace and maybe refuel before heading back. It’s an enjoyable route for those who want to enjoy both urban energy and a taste of the countryside—all in under a couple of hours!
