 | Bicycling America's National Parks: California
The Best Road and Trail Rides from Joshua Tree to Redwood National Park
David Story
From the snowcapped peaks of the Sierras to the towering coastal redwoods of Muir Woods, California's national parks and monuments are renowned for their splendor. Touring these national treasures by bicycle has become a favorite way to leave luggage-laden cars and busy roads behind and enjoy the hidden byways of the parks more fully.
The rides range in length from a 2-mile warm-up in Manzanar National Historic Site to a breathtaking Yosemite tour of nearly 100 miles. Each ride description includes a detailed map, directions, information about the trail or road surface, the length and difficulty of the ride, and information on sights you'll see along the way. A trip-planning appendix for each park tells you where to stay or camp, do your laundry, eat, buy supplies, and repair or rent a bike.
