Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Sverdlovskiy do Shchyolkovo

This route takes you from Sverdlovskiy to Shchyolkovo, covering just over 20 km—perfect for a solid ride that’s not too long, but enough to get your heart pumping. Starting from Sverdlovskiy, a residential town northeast of Moscow known for its Soviet heritage, you’ll enjoy mostly quiet roads and access roads, so traffic shouldn’t be a worry.

About 60% of your ride is on paved or asphalt surfaces, but keep an eye out for some gravel and unpaved patches—roughly a quarter of the way is a bit bumpier, so wider tires are a good idea. There’s a gentle mix of ascent and descent, with small climbs adding up to a little over 100 meters of vertical gain—enough to feel accomplished, but not too tough.

You’ll end in Shchyolkovo, a lively town with plenty of places to grab a snack or coffee after your ride. Take a little time in the local park or by the river to unwind. Altogether, this route offers a laid-back escape from the city, blending urban surroundings with bits of nature along the way.
