Giro veloce in bici da Santa Monica a Westwood

This ride takes you from the sun-kissed beaches of Santa Monica to the lively, tree-lined streets of Westwood—the home of UCLA and a hub of West LA culture. Starting off near the iconic Santa Monica Pier, you can enjoy a good stretch of cycleway (over half the route!), making for an easy and mostly relaxed cruise.

You'll pedal past beautiful neighborhoods and parks, gradually gaining just a bit of elevation (about 64 meters), so expect a gentle uphill in places, but nothing too intimidating. Most surfaces are smooth asphalt, and with such a high proportion of bike-friendly paths and quiet roads, you won’t have to battle much traffic—a big bonus for LA!

As you roll into Westwood, take a moment to soak in the energy of the area—whether it's the classic movie theaters, lively student life around UCLA, or fantastic food spots. It's a short but sweet urban adventure with a unique mix of ocean breeze and city buzz!
