Cycling tours from Słubice

The two official cycling routes start at the bridge connecting Słubice with Frankfurt an der Oder. The Słubicka Pętla Rowerowa is approximately 45 kilometres long. The Słubice–Urad cycling route covers about 22 kilometres and leads from Słubice towards the municipality of Cybinka along the Oder Valley. Based on the stated distances, Słubice–Urad is the shorter of the two routes; the Pętla is approximately twice as long. You can therefore consider route length as a specific difference when making your choice.

In the wider Słubicki destination area, a three-kilometre recreational cycling route also leads from ul. Sportowa in Słubice towards Drzecin. It connects to a one-kilometre cycle path to Kunowice. This route adds another described option for getting around by bike to the longer routes.
