Great Highway Bike Path

amazing beach view

February, 2025 by pandapillow

Road is closed to vehicle traffic on weekends. Great road condition and amazing view of ocean beach.

Del Rio Trail

Easy trail from Bill Conlins park to land Park

November, 2024 by lilydavis77

Started the trail at the water tower. Really nice to finally have a trail that connects to Sacramento. Had to cross streets but it was worth it for the ride.

Iron Horse Regional Trail

Mixed Bag

October, 2024 by dmurphy52

I rode this trail from the Livermore end to just past Danville. Overall, it seems more suited to local users that have identified sections that fit their needs (e..g. running, walking, or shorter bike rides. There were two fairly lengthy detours secondary to construction. Parts of the trail have cracks wide enough that they are a serious risk to causing anyone with skinny tires to crash, though other parts are as perfect as a path can be. Foot traffic in the Danville section, at least on a weekend, is heavy. There are many traffic crossings, and having to wait for a light to change in order to get across is not uncommon. For anyone attempting to ride the entire length of the trail, a spirit of adventure and a bit of determination would be required. Of note is that one can get on the trail right in front of the Dublin/Pleasanton BART station. As BART is a bike friendly way of getting around, this opens up trail access to people throughout the Bay Area. Other than dangerous cracks in the path, safety is not an issue.

American River Parkway (Jedediah Smith Memorial Trail)

very scenic trail

September, 2024 by narnia_tl

I am fortunate to live a few blocks from the trail and I ride it every day. From Beal’s Point at Folsom Lake to the Aquatic Center at Lake Natoma takes you through shaded oaks and along the river. Start at Beal’s and ride to the Folsom Pedestrian Bridge, enjoy the stunning views of the river. You can cross the bridge into historic Folsom and stop for fantastic food at Karen’s Bakery, right on the trail, a favorite stopping point for bikers. Return across the bridge to the trail and through Black Miner’s park and picnic area right on the water. Continuing on, you’ll ride along the water then through lovely oak trees then come out along the river again as you approach Lake Natoma. You can cross Hazel Ave to the Aquatic Park/Beach. This connects to further trails if you want to continue. Both Black Miner’s and Aquatic parks have swimmingpicnicking/kayak rentals as well.

Shepherd Canyon Trail (Montclair Railroad Trail)

beautiful trail/ paved and flat

Beautiful shady trail short and sweet

UC Davis Arboretum and Putah Creek Trails

extra stars because it was pretty

June, 2024 by qdym76h2rq

DO NOT plan to use this trail with inline skates. It was a disaster. Unless you own all terrain skates, these paths are better for walking, cycling.

Ninos Parkway

American River Parkway (Jedediah Smith Memorial Trail)

Awesome trail!

February, 2024 by qk58jcpmdw

We really enjoyed this trail! Great views with lots of places to stop. And plenty of restrooms. We went during the week and there were a lot of people out there. I can imagine it gets pretty crowded on the weekends. But, we would definitely ride this one again.

Prince Memorial Greenway

Prince Memorial Greenway

December, 2023 by montyw_tl

This paved trail from Santa Rosa City Hall to Railroad Square with extensions to the west along Santa Rosa Creek is a great bit of nature in the downtown. Restored 20 years ago from a paved trapezoidal channel, it is now grown out with towering trees and pools and riffles. It even goes under Highway 101. It is also lined with murals and art pieces. Newly adopted by a group called Friends of the Prince Memorial Greenway, it is clean and well maintained and frequently patrolled by Santa Rosa Police and members of the Friends Committee?

Petaluma SMART Pathway

Just a conmuter path, under bridges and through homeless camps

September, 2023 by david588

This is just a path from point A to point B. Nothing remarkable. It goes through homeless camps and under highway bridges. Not the most beautiful experience. Nicely paved.
