Gita in bici di un giorno da Ekaterinburg a Sovkhoznyy

This ride takes you from the bustling city vibes of Yekaterinburg to the quieter, rural feel of Sovkhoznyy. Starting in Yekaterinburg, Russia’s fourth-largest city and a major stop on the Trans-Siberian Railway, you’ll quickly leave the urban energy behind as you head southwest.

The 21 km route is mostly on smooth asphalt, with just over a quarter of the surface missing or on other types, so expect a few rough patches—especially as you get closer to the village. Most of your ride is on quiet roads and cycleways, making it fairly relaxed, though you’ll want to keep an eye out when crossing the occasional busy stretch. There’s a gentle climb overall but nothing too taxing.

As you roll into Sovkhoznyy, you’ll feel the difference: it’s much smaller, with a laid-back rural pace. If you love seeing the contrast between city and countryside, this route shows it all off! Bring a snack, some water, and enjoy the ride.
