Giro veloce in bici da Palo Alto a Mountain View

This ride takes you from the charming techy streets of Palo Alto to the heart of Mountain View—a breezy 11.5 km spin (just over 7 miles) that’s perfect for a quick, relaxing outing. Starting in Palo Alto, home to Stanford University and countless startup legends, you’ll cruise mostly on quiet roads, making it a chill ride and great for thinking up your own next big idea.

You’ll glide south past tree-lined neighborhoods and through spots dotted with cozy cafés, enjoying smooth asphalt most of the way. The route’s nearly flat (just a tiny climb of around 30 meters), so it’s easy on the legs. If you’re a fan of green spaces, keep an eye out for the many parks as you pass.

Roll into Mountain View—home to Google HQ and the shorelines of the Bay—and grab a bite on Castro Street or chill at Shoreline Park. Whether you’re commuting or just cruising, this ride is all about easy exploration between two Silicon Valley icons.
