The concept behind Adventure Cycling's National Bicycle Route Network is simple:
Cyclists need quiet, scenic roads and mountain bike trails to enjoy themselves on
bicycle trips. Adventure Cycling researchers carefully link together rural roads to create
low-trafficked routes through some of the nation's most scenic and interesting terrain.
Their routes usually aren't the most direct way to go, but they're not meant to be. They want
you to see a rural America that can't be seen traveling from the freeways.
This route network was started in 1976 with the TransAmerica Bicycle Trail; today there
are more than 36,180 miles of routes in the Network.
These routes are available to you in 300 - 400 mile map sections, so you can plan a
weekend trip or a summer-long adventure.
New! Historic Underground Railroad Bike Route. Adventure Cycling Association. Mobile, AL to Owen Sound, Ontario. 2058 miles. The Underground Railroad Bicycle Route honors the bravery of those that fled bondage and those that provided shelter. This route passes points of interest and historic sites along a 2,100-mile corridor. Beginning in Mobile, Alabama - a busy port for slavery during the pre-civil war era - the route goes north following rivers through Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Kentucky. Waterways, as well as the North Star, were often used by freedom seekers as a guide in their journeys to escape slavery.
Upon crossing into Ohio, the route leaves the river to head inland toward Lake Erie and enters Canada at the Peace Bridge near Buffalo, New York. In Ontario, the route circumvents the shores of Lake Ontario and ends at Owen Sound, a town founded by freedom seekers 150 years ago.

Lewis & Clark Trail Route
Lewis & Clark Bicycle Trail. Adventure Cycling Association. 4,618 miles. Since 1998, Adventure Cycling Association has been compiling a new and ambitious set of bicycling maps following the route of Lewis and Clark. The Lewis & Clark Bicycle Trail was born of a desire to offer bicyclists a way to celebrate the bicentennial anniversary of the Corps of Discovery's journey, which began in 1804.
The Lewis & Clark Bicycle Trail's 4,618 miles cross nine mountain passes, pass through four national parks and monuments, overlook dozens of rivers in addition to the Missouri and the Columbia, and promise you views of bison, elk, deer, antelope and other wildlife. The Trail will be the best possible way to experience the magnificent landscapes witnessed by Lewis and Clark: all of the sense of wonder, all of the adventure, but a lot less inconvenience and hardship.
Our main 1804 westward route of Lewis and Clark is 3,254 miles in length, but overall the maps will cover 4,618 miles. The maps have been divided into eight sections covering both the westbound and eastbound routes taken by the Corps. There will be some mountain biking options available. Services are sometimes few and far between, making this one of our most challenging routes.
