Cycling in Wrocław

Few things are more lovely than cycling around Wrocław on a sunny day, as the plethora of long-legged loose skirted citizens doing just that will attest. Full of bridges, canals and green riverfront, Wrocław didn't just draw the nickname of 'Poland's Venice' out of a hat at the tourist bureau. This is one of Poland's greenest cities with 180 kilometres of cycling paths to back it up. Having a bike is not only a great way to negate a night of hard living but also an ideal way to take in the city's natural beauty and visit further out destinations like the lovely Szczytnicki Park (I-4/5) to the east and further south to Rackowiecki forest (I-6). Despite a recent action by the city to designate specific parking space for bicycles in front of many Wrocław venues, actually renting a bike is not nearly as easy as it should be. Hopefully our bike hire listings below will help you get a set of wheels and some wind in your hair, but if you know of other bike hire locations, please let us know.
