The Best of Oregon Riding
Did you know Oregon has the only Scenic Bikeways program in the nation? Our unique Scenic Bikeways program features routes suggested by local proponents so you know you are getting the best of the best when you ride an Oregon Scenic Bikeway. These routes have been officially reviewed, ridden and adopted, and each one provides inspiration for planning a two-wheeled vacation in Oregon for visitors and residents riding here for the first time or the fiftieth.
The state Scenic Bikeway program is administered by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department in partnership with Travel Oregon, the Department of Transportation, federal land management agencies, local proponents, and other organizations. Each of the Scenic Bikeway routes has been vetted by an advisory committee and approved by the Parks and Recreation Commission. More information about the Scenic Bikeways program as well as downloadable maps and cue sheets can be found on the Oregon Scenic Bikeways website.
The routes are diverse, accommodating everyone from beginning to advanced riders, for day trips or extended, multi-day adventures. Some Bikeways are linear, some are loops, some are short and some are long. Instructions on obtaining a copy of the free Oregon Scenic Bikeways Guide and interactive maps showing services along the bikeways are at Travel Oregon.
