PZU Gran Fondo Warsaw 2026

Get ready for big racing in the capital! 

Gran Fondo Warsaw is an event that lets you feel like a pro peloton rider, blasting along the city’s wide arteries and the scenic routes of Mazovia. The start and finish in iconic locations (often around PGE National Stadium or Bank Square) and a course closed to car traffic guarantee top comfort and safety. It’s here, on flat and fast sections, that you can find out how many watts are hiding in your legs and what it tastes like to ride in a big group under the eyes of thousands of fans! 🚴‍♂️🏙️

Once you’ve crossed the finish line and cooled down after a sprinter’s finish, Warsaw will offer you recovery, big-city style:

Relax on the Vistula Boulevards – the perfect place to chill out after the race. You can sit on the steps right by the Vistula, enjoy a well-deserved meal in one of the many eateries, and take in the view of the river and the city’s modern architecture 🌊.

Rest in the Royal Łazienki Park – if your legs need a calm walk, there’s no better place than the park paths in the company of peacocks and squirrels. The shade of centuries-old trees is the best natural way to calm your body down 🌳.

Copernicus Science Centre – if you started near the riverbank, drop by Copernicus. Even if you don’t have the strength to tour it, the rooftop gardens offer a phenomenal view of Warsaw’s skyline and your race route 🔭.

Carb loading in Powiśle – this neighborhood is a mecca for food lovers. From artisan pizza to modern veggie burgers—you’ll find everything here to quickly rebuild your energy stores after intense effort 🍕🍔. Remember: Gran Fondo Warsaw isn’t just a race—it’s a manifestation of cycling passion right in the heart of Poland. Is your bike already polished for a start in the shadow of skyscrapers? 🏁
