Nature Boulevard

Boulevard Nature Cycling Loop

A collection of 4 cycling routes.

Overview

About this collection

A relaxed greenway-style loop linking parks, riversides, and countryside on a mix of paths, quiet roads, and cycleways. Expect mostly smooth asphalt and concrete with long stretches of gravel, a few sandy bits, and short hops through pedestrian areas.

The terrain rolls a little with a few punchy climbs and descents, so it stays interesting without being extreme. Wider tires (32 mm or gravel) make the unpaved parts more fun. You can hop on anywhere and ride a short section or go for the full loop.

This collection strings together the Boulevard Nature sections so you can pick routes that fit your time and mood. Paved bits are family friendly; the rougher tracks suit riders who like exploring. Traffic is generally light, with only brief road links.

Tips: bring water and lights, share the path with walkers and runners, and watch for softer sand after rain. Great for an easy spin after work or a longer weekend outing close to nature.
