In bici da West End of London a Islington

This route takes you from London’s lively West End up to the buzzing heart of Islington—perfect for a city ride that shows off classic London. You’ll start surrounded by theatres, shops, and the iconic energy around Oxford Circus. From there, the route rolls steadily north-east, mostly on well-kept cycleways (hello, stress-free pedalling!). You’ll skirt past leafy Bloomsbury and hop onto quiet back roads, seeing a different side of the city as you go.

It’s about 10 km, so it’s an easy ride to get your daily fix, with a couple of gentle climbs and dips (don’t worry, nothing Tour de France-level here). Almost everything’s on smooth asphalt, just a few paving stones to keep things interesting. Your destination—Islington—is famous for its vibrant Upper Street, indie shops, and plenty of cafés for a post-ride snack.

If you need a break, there’s always a green square or a quirky corner to explore along the way. A great route whether you’re commuting, exploring, or just chasing the London buzz on two wheels!
