Home » Cycling from Casalecchio di Reno to Bologna
A nice bike ride, almost all of it on a bike path, from the hills of Bologna to the center of Bologna.
This very easy route, also suitable for children, starts from the center of Casalecchio di Reno, on the river bridge itself. You go a few hundred meters and cross the Reno via another bicycle/pedestrian bridge, skirting the Reno Canal inside the park.
Once we arrive at the Carthusian cemetery, which is well worth a visit, the canal is buried and thus can no longer be seen, although in fact it continues its path practically under our route. From the Certosa, one can take a small detour to see the Bologna stadium, or continue along the bicycle path that runs alongside the road to the city’s ring boulevards .
A so-called“bicycle ring road” has been built along the avenues, encircling the entire historic city in its circumference. You ride a small section of this bike path and then enter one of the streets most famous to night owls, which is Via del Pratello. The latter is known for its taverns, which have always characterized it and made it come alive especially late at night.
At the end of the Pratello you enter the area of the center proper and walk down Via Ugo Bassi to Piazza Maggiore.
Technical description:
The route is very easy, there are no challenging sections: it can also be done every day by bike, thus avoiding the car.
The first part is developed first in the city (Casalecchio) and then inside the park; we then enter Bologna using partly bicycle lanes and partly the roads, although limited circulation to cars in the historic center.
