Giro veloce in bici da Blackheath a Barbican

Here’s a scenic city spin: start in leafy Blackheath, famous for its village vibe, open heathland, and a smattering of historic pubs. From there, you’ll wind your way north across South London, mostly sticking to quiet roads and dedicated cycleways—so you can take it easy and enjoy the changing cityscape.

It’s roughly 15.7 km to your destination, the Barbican, a striking arts and residential complex at the heart of the City. Expect gentle climbs (the route rises about 88m in total) and more gradual descents as you roll through neighborhoods like Deptford and Bermondsey, over the Thames, and into the buzz of Central London.

Nearly the entire ride is on high-quality paved surfaces, with just a bit of paving stones and concrete under your wheels for variety. The Barbican itself is worth lingering—its dramatic 1960s architecture and cultural calendar make it a London icon.

Perfect for riders who want a bit of London’s green, a slice of its history, and an arty finish!
