Rowerowa z Lizbona do Pontinha

Kick off your ride in the heart of Lisbon, a city known for its iconic hills and vibrant neighborhoods, and set your sights on Pontinha, a quieter suburb to the northwest. This 13.5 km route is a great mix for both urban explorers and leisure cyclists—most of your way is on cycle paths and quieter roads, so it’s pretty chilled despite some classic Lisbon climbs (expect around 209 meters of ascent in total!).

As you leave the bustling downtown behind, you’ll get a taste of different urban vibes—from cobbled stretches and modern concrete to long runs of smooth asphalt. With less than 6% of your route on regular roads, it’s a comfortable ride, and you won’t have to stress much about heavy traffic. The highest point reaches about 124 meters—so those panoramic views of Lisbon pop up as you go.

Pontinha itself isn’t as touristy as Lisbon, but it’s known for local vibes and easy access to Monsanto Park, the “lung” of the city—a perfect spot to end your journey, catch your breath, and maybe plan your next adventure!
