Szybka przejażdżka rowerowa z Teekkarikylä do Helsinki

This ride takes you from the lively student village of the Helsinki University of Technology in Otaniemi all the way into the heart of Helsinki. It’s a chill, roughly 10.5 km route on smooth, mostly asphalt cycleways—perfect for a casual commute or sightseeing spin.

You start among the modern campus buildings and relaxed student life in Otaniemi (fun fact: it’s one of Finland’s largest student housing areas, buzzing with tech innovation). The way into Helsinki is pretty gentle; expect some minor ups and downs but nothing that’ll leave you gasping. You'll mostly follow dedicated bike paths, so there’s minimal traffic to worry about, and the ride offers views across leafy suburbs and, now and then, glimpses of the sea.

The route ends in downtown Helsinki—Finland’s vibrant capital, packed with design, culture, cafés, and beautiful bayside parks. Lock up your bike and enjoy a pastry at the iconic cafés or explore the bustling Market Square!
