Sortie rapide à vélo de Centar à Novi Zagreb

Ready for a relaxed urban ride? Start off in Donji grad, the lively heart of Zagreb, where café culture, grand Austro-Hungarian architecture, and leafy parks set the scene. From here, pedal south through city streets and quieter residential pockets as you make your way toward Novi Zagreb.

This 16 km route is a nice mix—most of it is smooth pavement and asphalt, but expect a little bit of adventure with stretches of gravel. There’s some gentle climbing (just under 80 meters up) but nothing too tough, and with more descent than ascent, your legs will thank you later. The ride takes you along calm roads and pleasant paths, with barely any busy streets, making it safe and enjoyable.

You’ll cross the Sava River, getting a totally different view of Zagreb as you ease into the modernist neighborhoods of Novi Zagreb, known for its broad boulevards and green spaces. Whether you’re commuting or just exploring, this route lets you experience both classic and contemporary Zagreb in one chilled-out ride.
