Giro veloce in bici da Gliwice a Żernica

This relaxed ride takes you from the heart of Gliwice, a vibrant Upper Silesian city known for its historic old town and modern technical university, down to the peaceful village of Żernica. The 13 km route is mostly on paved surfaces, with a nice mix of cycleways, quiet roads, and a few access roads—so you’ll have plenty of smooth rolling and just a touch of adventure.

You’ll gently climb about 69 meters along the way, but the elevation never gets too tough. Expect to pass through some green stretches and smaller neighborhoods as you leave the city bustle behind for Żernica’s rural calm. Żernica itself is an old village with roots reaching back to medieval times—perfect for a breather and wandering its tranquil streets before heading back or onward.

All told, it’s a great short ride whether you’re escaping the city or exploring new corners of Silesia!
