Experience three of the finest parks in the metropolitan area – Tryon Creek State Park and two city parks – on this 8-mile one way or 16-mile round-trip beginner ride. Paved bike paths take riders through each park; interesting, scenic streets connect the parks. Start at the Tryon Creek State Park Nature Center and take the paved bike path south to the City of Lake Oswego. This downhill, winding path is pure cycling bliss. After a quick spin through Lake Oswego’s First Addition neighborhood, continue south to George Rogers Park and check out the historic iron smelter. Finally, enjoy stunning Willamette River views from Old River Road and the quiet serenity of Mary S. Young State Park.

Beautiful ride with nearly no traffic, great views of the lake and the Willamette River. Watch out for the uphill at E Street – it sneaks up on you. Other than that, awesome ride.
