DETAILS

This is a favorite out-and-back ride on a dedicated bike/pedestrian, paved rails-to-trails path. The route is relatively flat, with a maximum grade of 2.3%.  A beautiful trail, fully shaded, along a river in the trees, well maintained, and not crowded.  It’s about 28 miles on the trail from Tenino City Park to the turnaround point at Lacy, WA. You can ride all of it or turn around whenever you’ve had enough.  There is a very cool, free outdoor sculpture garden about 12 miles from the start that is a must-see and a nice break with a Porta Potty.

The trail doesn’t have water or food, so load up your bike with snacks and fluids. There is a great spot to stop at a picnic table to eat your power bar or PBJ at about mile 15 (easy to miss).  If you go to the end in Lacy, there is a store right off the trail where you can purchase water and other items.

It takes about an hour and 30 minutes to drive to the starting point at Tenino City Park. Take I-5 to milepost 88 for the exit towards Tenino. The ride will start at 10:00 am. There is a bathroom at Tenino City Park.

Tenino City Park, 201 Washington Ave E., Tenino, WA. 

Since it’s an out-and-back route, you can go at your own pace and ride as many miles as you want. We’ll regroup at the Sculpture Garden and at the picnic table.  
 
Carpooling is recommended as it’s a long drive and a long day.
