Quick ride by bicycle from Belsize Park to City of London

Kick off your ride in the charming Belsize Park, nestled in the leafy borough of Camden. Known for its elegant Victorian homes and vibrant culture, it’s the perfect spot to start your cycling journey.

You've got a nice stretch of about 13 km ahead, mostly on cycleways and quiet roads, which means you can enjoy the ride without too much traffic hassle. The route is easy on the legs with just a bit of ascent and a more generous descent, meaning you’ll be cruising downhill more often than not. This makes it ideal for a leisurely ride or even a speedy commute to the City.

As you pedal along, breathe in the fresh air as you skirt past scenic spots like Regent’s Park, and maybe make a pit stop at Primrose Hill for a quick view of the city skyline. Enjoy the mostly asphalt path with some charming paving stones adding a bit of texture under your wheels.

You’ll eventually roll into the bustling City of London—heart of the UK’s financial district. It’s a vibrant mix of old and new, with modern skyscrapers alongside historic buildings. Why not wind down with a coffee at one of the trendy cafés before heading back or further on your adventures?
