This 8.1 mile loop has always been one of my favorite biking loops when I want to do a not too hilly 1-2 hour bike ride without having to ride on Hwy 108 or go up the Dodge Ridge Road. You could certainly hike or run it too! It is about 70% paved and the rest of dirt of gravel.
This loop starts at the Pinecrest Marina.
