Giro veloce in bici da Berkeley a Emeryville

This easygoing ride takes you from the vibrant college town of Berkeley down to the creative hub of Emeryville—a perfect route for anyone wanting a chill cycling experience. You’ll start near the UC Berkeley campus (go Bears!) and cruise mostly on quiet, paved roads, passing through tree-lined streets and eclectic neighborhoods.

There’s barely any uphill (just a tiny ascent at the start), and the route is mostly a gentle descent toward the bay. Expect a mix of smooth asphalt and stretches of concrete, with about a quarter of the route on dedicated cycleways—ideal for relaxed pedaling.

Emeryville, your destination, is known for its art spaces, shopping, and as home to Pixar Animation Studios—so don’t be surprised if it feels a little animated! At just under 7 km, this ride is the perfect way to connect two of the East Bay’s most interesting cities without breaking a sweat.
