The first 16 km of the route take you through open countryside roads leading toward the Dniester — a gradual and rewarding ride where the landscape slowly transforms from fields into the lush, green riverbank scenery that gives this route its romantic name.

Just 200 meters from that point, the route arrives at one of its most intriguing stops — the Tunnels of Mines in Bychok village (Bychok village, Grigoriopol district). These mysterious underground passages carved into the earth offer a fascinating glimpse into the area’s industrial past, creating a striking contrast with the natural beauty surrounding them.

The journey concludes at what may be the most breathtaking moment of the entire ride — a sweeping View of the Dniester River between Bychok and Krasnogorka villages (Grigoriopol district). Standing here, with the river stretching out before you and nature in full splendor on both banks, it becomes immediately clear why this place earned such a poetic name. A view worth every pedal stroke.
