Giro veloce in bici da Bruxelles a Zaventem

This ride takes you from the vibrant heart of Brussels to the bustling town of Zaventem—best known as the home of Brussels Airport—on a pleasant, mostly paved 13 km stretch. You’ll roll out from Brussels, famous for its historic Grand Place, waffles, and EU institutions, weaving your way along mostly smooth cycleways and quiet roads. The route is gently undulating, with a few small climbs to keep it interesting but nothing too demanding.

Expect a good mix of city buzz and suburban calm. Most of the ride (about 68%) is on dedicated cycleways, so you can relax and enjoy the scenery—passing a mix of urban streets, parks, and the green neighborhoods that separate Brussels from its northeastern neighbor. Zaventem itself has a laid-back vibe beyond the airport and is a convenient base for further adventures.

Grab a coffee before you set off, bring your camera for the city sights, and enjoy a safe, easy ride to a destination that’s always connected to the rest of Europe!
