Rowerowa z Sint-Genesius-Rode do Bruksela

This scenic 18 km ride takes you from the leafy suburb of Sint-Genesius-Rode into the buzzing heart of Brussels. Starting in Sint-Genesius-Rode—a charming Belgian town known for its green spaces and mix of French- and Dutch-speaking locals—you’ll cruise mostly on paved cycleways and quiet roads, skirting forest edges and passing through cozy residential neighborhoods.

The terrain is friendly, with a few gentle rises at the start, but you’ll generally be descending as you get closer to Brussels. As you pedal, you’ll notice the landscape shift from spacious greenery to the vibrant city vibe of Brussels—the capital of Belgium, famous for its stunning Grand Place, impressive EU institutions, and of course, delicious waffles.

Most of the route follows dedicated bike paths or quiet streets, so you can enjoy the ride at your own pace with minimal traffic stress. Whether you’re commuting or just out for a leisurely spin, this route is a great way to connect the peaceful outskirts to the lively city center. Don’t forget to treat yourself to a coffee or a pastry once you arrive!
