Bike the Province Lands Bike Trail

There's no better way to start off a day before you go to the beach, or finish off a day of learning at the Visitor Center than to head out for a leisurely bike ride. The Province Lands Bike Trail is one of three bike trails at Cape Cod National Seashore. This 5.45-mile trail loops around the Province Lands, passing through pine forests, sandy dunes, and low-lying cranberry bogs. There are spurs to both Herring Cove and Race Point beaches, as well as Bennett Pond. Enjoy a nice afternoon bike ride and then cool off at the beach! The Province Lands Bike Trail is paved and accessible, but there are sections with steep grades that may be difficult to navigate. There may be sand or standing water on the trail, depending on weather conditions. The Province Lands Bike Trail is moderate to advanced in skill, with several steep or sandy areas. Please consider skill recomendations when determining if this activity is appropriate for younger family members. The trail can be accessed at: Herring Cove Beach (entrance fee in summer) Race Point Beach (entrance fee in summer) Province Lands visitor center (free access) Beech Forest parking lot (free access) Remember to practice good bike safety!
