In bici da Amsterdam a Duivendrecht

This is a relaxed cycle route from the heart of Amsterdam to the small but lively suburb of Duivendrecht—a ride just under 8 km, perfect for everyday commuting or a leisurely spin. You’ll start surrounded by Amsterdam’s iconic canals and historic architecture, then wind your way mostly along smooth cycleways (over 80% of the trip!) with only gentle elevation changes—so it’s easy for any level of rider.

Expect a mix of smooth asphalt and classic Dutch paving stones under your wheels as you leave the city buzz behind. Soon, you’ll breeze through quieter roads and green spaces, catching a glimpse of local neighborhoods and maybe even some unexpected street art.

Duivendrecht itself is a cozy former village now known for its convenient transport connections and welcoming feel. It’s got an interesting mix of old and new, and is right next to the Amstel river—great for a mini adventure just outside the city.

Bring your camera and a snack—this quick pedal is stress-free and full of that special Dutch cycling vibe!
