Giro veloce in bici da Chişinău a Vatra

This ride takes you from the lively city of Chișinău, Moldova’s vibrant capital, to the quieter town of Vatra, just northwest of the city. You’ll cover about 17.5 km—perfect for a relaxed outing or a slightly more ambitious commute. The route rolls through gentle hills, so you’ll get a bit of a workout with some short, scenic climbs and smooth descents, but nothing too intense.

Most of the journey keeps you off the main roads, with stretches of quiet country roads and tracks. Some surfaces are paved or asphalt, though a good chunk is a mix of less defined paths—so a hybrid or gravel bike will be your friend here. Only a small section will have you dodging heavier traffic.

As you leave the bustle of Chișinău behind, enjoy the green outskirts and open spaces, eventually rolling into Vatra—a peaceful spot known for its relaxed pace and proximity to stunning natural areas. This route is great if you’re looking to escape the city and explore rural Moldova on two wheels!
