Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Antwerpia do Stabroek

Spin out of Antwerp’s historic center by the Scheldt and point your bars north toward the polders. It’s about 21 km and mostly flat, so think 75–90 minutes at an easy pace. You’ll spend almost the whole ride on dedicated cycleways, with smooth asphalt and the occasional stretch of paving stones; there may be a few short unpaved bits near dikes or green corridors.

The city vibe quickly gives way to port views and wide-open fields. Antwerp is Belgium’s diamond capital and home to the MAS museum—worth a quick look before you roll. As you approach Stabroek, the landscape turns properly polder: big skies, straight lines, and a chance of crosswinds.

Finish in Stabroek, a quiet municipality near the Dutch border. Consider a small detour to Fort van Stabroek, part of Antwerp’s historic defensive ring; if you’ve got extra legs, the Kalmthoutse Heide nature reserve isn’t far for bonus kilometers.

Tips: watch for heavy-vehicle crossings near the harbor, and bring lights for underpasses.
