ROAD BIKE AREAS

The Spokane area offers the best in road biking. You can live in the heart of our city and ride from home, visiting quiet roads in minutes.

We have low traffic rural roads surrounding the city that lead to pine forests, rolling wheat fields and small towns. Spokane has a four season climate, with humidity so low in the summers that our weather forecasters don’t bother to report it!

Trails around Spokane include the nearly 50 mile Centennial TrailThis trail parallels the Spokane River from Northwest of the city, through downtown’s Riverfront Park and over the state border where it becomes the Idaho Centennial Trail. Great for families with kids too. The newly paved Fish Lake Trail is also a good place to take the family with no hills and no traffic.

The Trail of the Coeur d'Alenesis a beautiful paved trail following railroad right-of-way from Mullan near the Montana border, to Plummer on the prairie near the Washington border. There are 72 miles of paved paths through the mountains, the historic Silver Valley, along the river and past a series of lakes, along the shore of Lake Coeur d'Alene, over the Chatcolet Bridge to Heyburn State Park, and then climbs to the Palouse prairie.
