[[File:Regent's Canal, Camden Town - geograph.org.uk - 864035.jpg|left|thumb|265x265px|The [[Regent's Canal]] between King's Cross and [[Camden Town]]]]
Several cycle routes pass through King's Cross. [[Cycling infrastructure]] is maintained by the [[London Borough of Camden]] and [[Transport for London]] (TfL).

[[List of cycle routes in London|Cycleway]] 6 runs north–south along Midland Road (between St Pancras station and the British Library) and Judd Street. Northbound, Cycleway 6 passes east of Camden Town ''en route'' to Kentish Town. Southbound, the route links King's Cross to Farringdon, the City, and Elephant & Castle.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://tfl.gov.uk/maps/cycle|title=Cycle - Transport for London|access-date=February 24, 2020}}</ref>

The [[Regent's Canal]] [[Towpath]] runs westbound from King's Cross to [[Camden Lock]], [[Regent's Park]], and [[Maida Vale]]. The [[Islington Tunnel]] means that eastbound cyclists must bypass the canal through [[Angel, London|Angel]], but the path continues to the west of Angel towards [[Hoxton]], [[Victoria Park, Tower Hamlets|Victoria Park]], [[Mile End]], and [[Limehouse]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/enjoy-the-waterways/cycling|title=Cycling|website=[[Canal and River Trust]]|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190526132616/https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/enjoy-the-waterways/cycling|archive-date=May 26, 2019}}</ref>

Cycling infrastructure is also provided along Mabledon Place (towards [[Bloomsbury]]), York Way (towards [[Barnsbury]] and [[Kentish Town]]), Pentonville Road (towards [[Farringdon, London|Farringdon]]), Goods Way (between St Pancras International and York Way), and Argyle Street (between Gray's Inn Road and Euston Road).

There are cycle parking facilities throughout the district. Several [[bicycle-sharing system]]s operate in the area, including the [[Santander Cycles]] scheme.
