3 Best Trails For Bike Adventure In Belgrade
When we talk about the wider area of the city of Belgrade, three bike paths offer the best bike tours in Belgrade. Take a look at the map of trails of bike tours in Belgrade!
Novi (New) Belgrade And Zemun
The longest track is the one that unites Novi Beograd and Zemun. It is 50 kilometers long, and by riding it, the citizens of Belgrade can visit all the blocks and enjoy the Sava and the Danube, as this bike path covers Savski and Zemunski keys.
These two united routes connect at Branko's Bridge, where an elevator was opened five years ago, which allows cyclists to descend on the right bank of the Sava River from New Belgrade. This elevator can drive up to 10 bicycles, in one round.
This is the best and most popular bike trail in Belgrade. It is exceptionally crowded from early spring to the late fall. On this trail, you can find a lot of bars and restaurants to find refreshments and snacks.
Dorcol District to Sava River Lake
This trail is concentrated in the Old Belgrade area, on the right bank of the Sava River. This route is 7,5 km long. It's only one bike path that gives you the possibility to see the Kalemegdan Fortress Park.
This bike tour in Belgrade is well known by all cyclists who live in the old part of Belgrade and do not like to go to Ada Ciganlija (Sava River Lake) by bus or car.
The good news for this track is that local authorities have finished separating the Sava Lake tracks, so pedestrians and bikes will no longer bother each other.
Ada Ciganlija Lake Bike Trail
Ada Ciganlija lake, sometimes called the Belgrade Sea, is one of the most popular cycling trails. It's the most popular during the hot Belgrade summer period.
Fans of cycling have a great reason to be happy, as another large cycling track should be built in the coming period – on Ada Ciganlija! The old one is eight kilometers long and goes more or less around the lake itself.
This new one is planned on the other side of the so-called New Belgrade side, facing the New Belgrade blocks. It will be a good opportunity for New Belgrade inhabitants to reach this lake riding a bike.
