Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Queimados do Nilópolis

Spin across the Baixada Fluminense from Queimados to Nilópolis on a mostly chill, neighborhood-road ride. It’s about 31.8 km with roughly 430 m of climbing and similar descent—rolling rather than mountainous, topping out around 100 m elevation.

Roll out from Queimados, likely threading quiet residential streets east toward Mesquita/Nova Iguaçu before bending southeast into Nilópolis. Surfaces are largely paved/asphalt, but expect a few mixed or unknown patches—watch for the usual urban surprises like speed bumps, drains, and the odd rough segment. Most of the route sits on low-traffic roads, with a couple short busy bits—keep lights on and stay alert, especially near main arteries (avoid BR-116/Via Dutra if you can).

Quick local flavor:

• Queimados: a Baixada hub along the Queimados River, only a few decades into its municipality status.
• Nilópolis: home of the legendary Beija-Flor samba school—if you’ve got time, swing by their quadra for a dose of carnival heritage.

Good stops: padarias and corner markets in Mesquita/Nova Iguaçu for water and snacks. Early morning rides beat both heat and traffic. Enjoy the flow into Nilópolis!
