Giro veloce in bici da New York a Manhattan

Ready for a classic NYC ride? Start in the heart of downtown New York City and wind your way north toward the iconic neighborhoods of Manhattan. The route stretches about 13 km (that’s roughly 8 miles), offering mostly smooth, paved surfaces—with a whopping 94% falling into that category, perfect for speedy city cycling.

You’ll spend most of your journey on dedicated cycleways (about 68%), so you can relax and take in the ever-shifting urban scenery. The ride features some gentle up-and-downs, with a total ascent just over 100 meters—enough to get your legs working, but nothing too intense. Expect a mix of quiet roads and the occasional busy street, but most of the time, it’s smooth pedaling through neighborhoods, parks, and riverside views.

Finish up in Manhattan’s Upper West Side, close to historic Central Park. Whether you want to grab a coffee or dive into the city’s vibrant culture, you’ll have plenty to explore at the end of your ride.
