Hammond Trail

Pretty Views

July, 2026 by jlgrovet

This mixed use trail travels through woods, down quiet neighborhood streets, and over bridges. There are sections overlooking the ocean and Mad River.
We almost didn't go because a previous reviewer spoke of people camping/living on the trail. We saw no camping. The bridge is graffitied but didn't mind too much.
Short section of gravel/dirt and a rough, needing paved section (also pretty short) near Mad River Bridge. We started at Clam Beach and road to Mad River Beach, which is past the trail terminus if you turn right on the newly paved Mad River River Rd. Very little car traffic. Our route was about 13 miles round trip.

Calleguas Creek Bike Path

Nice

July, 2026 by pjswavely

It’s a nice trail. Good concrete and is an overall fun trail to ride. It would probably be even prettier if CA got some rain and the creek was full. Decent though, saw some snakes in the creek!

Town Loop

Town Loop

July, 2026 by lquixdra

Very, very beautiful bike ride, a little bit longer than it reported here - closer to 7 1/2 miles and I see that some people posted even longer (8 mi). Very well marked through the town, but not so well marked once you get out of the town. Going through the trees, and even the small streets, looking at the gorgeous houses - that most of us could never afford (¿) - was super fun.

Rincon Multi-Use Trail

Absolutely Amazing

July, 2026 by cewalker73

First time riding this trail and all I can say is amazing. It’s an easy safe ride along the coast that’s not too long for a beginner bike rider, offering beautiful views.

Humboldt Bay Trail

Beautiful flat ride along Humboldt Bay from the Eureka waterfront to the Arcata Marsh. Connects to trails heading to the south of Eureka and to the north of McKinleyville for 25 miles of safe and scenic riding.

San Fernando Road Bike Path

Good Local Trail

June, 2026 by adammecalo

Mostly straight, good paved trail. Like another review stated, you have to go up to the nearest stop light for a few corssings but otherwise a nice trail following San Fernando Rd. Took it from the nearest point to my home to the train station and back on my OneWheel. About 13 miles round trip. Am going to ride it again.

Noyo Headlands Coastal Trail

Great cliff side ride

June, 2026 by normanbowers

This trail has everything, smooth surface, spectacular views of the coast, and restrooms! From the Noyo River bridge on Hwy 1 to the end of the haul road trail is 7 miles. If you are in the area don't miss this ride.

Aliso Creek Riding and Hiking Trail

great trail

June, 2026 by eibacademy

Road it yesterday from beginning to end and back. Wonderful ride. Long uphill on way back but totally worth it

Almanor Rail Trail

beautiful but sunny trail

June, 2026 by blackbirdhello45

Very pretty, flat trail. I started near the Timber Lodge Trail and made it to Catfish Beach

Bear Creek Bikeway

I Love Merced’s bike paths, so beautiful!

June, 2026 by dawn94561

It’s so nice to just jump on a bike and enjoy the slow pace of days gone by.

Great Shasta Rail Trail

not even 1 star

June, 2026 by wendyallison

The Great Shasta Rail Trail is awful. We tried putting in at three trail heads and each time had to turn back because the thick unpacked gravel made it impossible to ride. We also encountered fallen trees and massive rock slides. Another problem is that not a single trailhead is marked and the roads they are off of have no road signs. It is in an area with little to know cell service, so trying to find trail heads in an area where no roads are named is nigh unto impossible. Finally, after a very frustrating 90 minutes of driving, I parking (a class c rv) unloading,trying to ride and giving up, we finally rode about 20 miles on Pilgrim Creek road, and another rural road. Don’t even waste your time trying,

Pope-Baldwin Bike Path

Riding bikes on this paved, curvy trail through the trees fulfills a kid's need-for-speed, while allowing adults the chance to slow down from the traffic at home. It's a win-win on all accounts.
