Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Portland à Vancouver

This ride takes you from the heart of Portland, known for its bike-friendly streets and hip urban vibes, north across the Columbia River to Vancouver, Washington. Expect about 21 km of rolling terrain with pleasant views and a mellow ascent. You’ll enjoy a nice mix of quiet roads and dedicated bike paths—nearly half the journey is on paved surfaces, though expect some stretches where you might hit rougher ground or missing pavement.

Leaving downtown, you’ll likely catch glimpses of the Willamette and Columbia rivers. The route’s signature feature is the crossing over the massive I-5 bridge, a classic highlight (snap a pic for your ride log!). Once in Vancouver, check out Esther Short Park or grab a coffee downtown. Both Portland and Vancouver are fun cities with a deep cycling culture, so you’ll be in good company the whole way. Respect traffic and enjoy the ride!
