Cycling in Cambodia offers a unique blend of cultural immersion, rich historical exploration, and scenic natural beauty.
Whether you’re navigating the bustling streets of the cities like Phnom Penh and Siem Reap, or the tranquil paths around Angkor Wat, Cambodia’s beautiful landscapes and warm hospitality make it an adventure cyclists’ paradise!
Why cycle in Cambodia?
Cambodia’s flat terrain and extensive network of rural roads provide an ideal setting for cyclists of all levels. Riding through the countryside allows for intimate encounters with local communities, offering insights into daily life that are often missed by other forms of travel.
The country’s rich history, evident in its ancient temples and colonial architecture, adds depth to a cycling journey here.
The affordability of accommodation and meals makes it accessible for budget-conscious travellers.
Where to ride
One of the most popular cycling tours in Cambodia is a border-hopping journey cycling from Vietnam to Cambodia, taking riders from Ho Chi Minh City to Siem Reap. This 450-kilometre adventure takes you through the Mekong Delta’s lush landscapes, across the Cambodian border, and into the heart of the ancient Khmer empire.
No visit to Cambodia would be complete without a trip to the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor Wat. This huge UNESCO World Heritage Site can be explored by bike, either as part of a wider itinerary or as part of a day trip from Siem Reap.
