Family-Friendly Bike Trails

Paved pathways, smooth roads, rugged mountain bike trails and endless gravel backroads – North Bay has a cycling adventure for every rider. The whole family will love the ride along the waterfront on the Kate Pace Way, or the Kinsmen Trail through the heart of North Bay. Long-distance cyclists will feel exhilarated on the long sweeping hills and gravel grind of the Voyageur Cycling Route, or one of the self-guided cycling tours developed by Discovery Routes.

endless gravel

Go beyond the pavement to discover your inner strength and grit on the endless gravel roads that crisscross through North Bay and surrounding communities.

Dubbed the toughest gravel race in Ontario, The Voyageur 200 charity gravel race is growing in popularity with 200 kilometers on the area’s most rugged backroads and trails. Or opt for the 30, 60 and 100km distances and the race is celebrating inclusivity and community in true gravel style.

Mountain Bike Park

For mountain bikers, the North Bay Mountain Bike Association have created the Three Towers Mountain Bike Trails, a dedicated mountain bike park, where the trails flow over granite ridges and natural bedrock berms, and a series of events and activities are hosted throughout the year for skills development and friendly competition.

‘Mountain Bike Our Way‘ is a new visitor biking package that offers mountain bikers and all cyclists discounts and resources, as well as speciality offers at participating bicycle-friendly accomodations.

It’s no wonder why North Bay is regularly selected as a major cycling event hub and welcomes riders every year from events such as: OCA Road Cycling Championships, The Voyageur 200 Gravel Race, Angry Johnny’s Mountain Bike Series and more.
