Giro veloce in bici da Milano a Figino

Here’s a great urban-to-countryside cycling escape: start in the heart of Milan, with its grand piazzas and lively atmosphere, and pedal northwest towards Figino, a quiet neighborhood on the city’s rural edge. This 12-kilometer route takes you through an impressive mix of city cycleways and tranquil local roads, with lots of opportunities to admire Milan’s blend of history and modern life before things mellow out among fields and parks near Figino.

Much of the route is on designated cycle paths, so it’s super beginner-friendly and relaxing—perfect for anyone looking to take a laid-back ride away from downtown. There are a few gentle ups and downs, with a total climb of just under 44 meters, so you won’t break too much of a sweat.

As you arrive in Figino, you’ll find yourself in one of Milan’s greenest districts, bordering the lush Parco delle Cave. It feels a world away from the city bustle, even though you’ve just cycled from the Duomo’s doorstep! Pack a snack, take your time, and enjoy the shifting scenery on this easy urban adventure.
